I'm not sad and bitter, did you not see the smiley? quite the opposite in fact! But out of the choice you gave, yes I would rather see the money spent on Italian olive groves, at least they would benefit from it! On the other hand we have a building which looses money every year even though it is newly built!
I would have preferred to see the money spent locally on useful projects like for instance Colwyn Bay Pier, Llandudno Pier Pavillion, must be numerous examples where that money could have been better spent!
