West Shore Issues

There's no danger of anyone breaking the rules, not even the Swans.

At least its not full of stones.Not quite sure why the yatch pool has no water and the paddling pool has tonnes of stones and no water but im sure they have a logical storey for it.

That looks like an old Aberconwy Borough Council sign!  That packed up in 1996!

Come on Yorkie you can not have it all ways.

They have saved money by not renewing the logo.

Used it to subsidise Venue Cymru, and other stupid enterprises!

Had a walk along the path from West Shore to Conwy last week, the sand has completely blocked the cycle path in the sand dunes by the breakwater, it must be 5 foot deep in places. Why bother clearing it when it will just get blocked again quickly?

[DaveR]

Remembered I had taken this photo of the cycle path at West Shore. The path is to the left of the wooden fence and is completely buried under many feet of sand:

Good photos Dave and they say it all.   Anyone living in Llandudno unless, of course they are a Councillor, would have known about the prevailing conditions there before suggesting that cycle track.
As for their efforts by the Toll house, my comments are unprintable in this festive period.

Sand as far as Church Walks this week !

We wont have to worry about sand for much longer.... as they're going back to 1991/92 and dumping a ton more rocks on the beach, with ye olde "sea defence" excuse again (yes, i know i know we need sea defences... but the dumping of rocks with difficult access to any decent "beach" is never the answer imho)

CCBC do one.

I was driving along the West Shore today about noon and could see the sand being blown over the sea wall by the force of today's wind.  I didn't bother to get out of the car and drove off before the car got sandblasted.
As we drove home along the Promenade we could see some spectacular waves hitting the Little Orme and it wasn't high tide either.  Hope that Dave has been braver than me and ventured out to take some photos of the stormy weather.

Didn,t you notice me on the prom ,dog and one daft owner 😂 walked along the west shore cycle path yesterday it's got more sand than the Sahara , did you notice all the sand stacked up by the boating lake .

[Hugo]

Sorry but I didn't see you Norman, I came up Gloddaeth Avenue and turned right and went past the boating lake and did notice the sand piled up there.  I turned around by the Toll House and drove past the sand hills in Abbey Road on my way back. 
If those idiots on the CCBC are going to raise the level of the beach again, then the sand problem might get much worse.
I did notice that no work is in progress on the site of the old Penmorfa Hotel which isn't surprising with Anwyl's record there

[Nemesis]

Just have a niggling feeling that Anwyl are using Pen Morfa as a builders yard.
