Local News & Discussion / Re: What's Llandudno Like Right Now?
« Last post by norman08 on Yesterday at 07:25:29 pm »
I couldn’t get to coed pella last night but watched the stream  the 3 Llandudno councillors were very good.   They council say they would save £125 k a year.     We subsidise the venue by £900+ k a year.  We also subsidise the porth erias over £300 la year.  The meeting was a farce you had more of the committee sat at home on zoom and they had no interest what so ever.  It’s about time these out of town councillors realised Llandudno brings into Conwy the biggest income  none of them have any real vision which is a shame..

Llandudno library move a step closer despite 'grave concerns' over savings
A senior council officer said she found it 'quite disappointing and dismaying' concerns had been 'whizzed out of a hat'
   

Conwy Council's head of finance Amanda Hughes said moving the library would save the authority £126K a year, costs which came from a service charge to landlord, national non-domestic rates, utility bills, and cleaning. "If the library was moved, we are confident we would save over £100,000 of these costs,” she said.

I'm at a loss to understand the logic of it all.       Llandudno owned the Library in Mostyn Street, yet sold it a few years ago to Mostyn Estates ( price not known)          Then theCCBC rented or leased the library,  presumably at the rate of £126K per annum.
Once it's gone from Mostyn Street it has gone forever
Just like the sand on the North Shore and the cycle track on the West Shore they have gone forever.      CCBC don't seem to learn anything from all the mistakes they have made

Spot on DVT.      It is Llyn Cowlyd so well done

We spotted a leak in the pipe but it doesn't look like it'll burst  just yet anyway

I don't know if you have driven up to the lake from Trefriw but the first part of it would have suited you in your Rally heydays,  I'll say some more about the road when I post my walk on here

No guesses ?         I'm surprised as many people living in the TTF area will have heard the name mentioned this year

'Free Palestine' protesters graffiti attack on former Prime Minister's statue
North Wales Police are investigating the attack on the David Lloyd George landmark in Caernarfon which was daubed with red paint and slogans

What a pointless act of vandalism.   It would be more positive if they made a donation to the poor people suffering in that area

Liverpool FC star Diogo Jota dies age 28 in Spain car accident
Liverpool forward Diogo Jota has tragically died at the age of 28
Liverpool FC star Diogo Jota, aged 28, has died following a road traffic accident, as reported by a local Spanish news outlet, according to the Mirror. Marca has reported that the Liverpool forward died after an accident in Zamora, Spain on Thursday morning.

Jota had recently married his long-term partner Rute Cardoso, whom he had been with since 2012. They share three children together and Jota had proposed to Rute back in July 2022, the Liverpool ECHO reports.

What a sad ending for such a young person and it just shows you how fragile life can be
