High tide was more than two hours away when I took these photos today and the weather was starting to get rough.      The breakwater that they built some years ago has certainly saved Rhos from flooding many times and the boats in the harbour  today seemed unaffected by the stormy weather but the high tide was still to come  ....

Developers never give up. The plans for the new building are unbelievably hideous - it looks like a 1980s care home.  &shake&

Amazing how that lovely house has to be destroyed to make way for that monstrosity!   &shake&

Odstone has been on the market for years, if it was such a terrific asset worth restoring, surely someone would have bought it by now?

Not if it was overpriced for the condition that it was in.

Daily mail today took a break from their usual Trumpxit licking and immigrant bashing to post this story about a disabled woman from Rhos on Sea.

I wonder if she ever uses a prosthesis? I was struck by one line in the DFM quote which suggested this wasn't the first time she'd written to the group.

To be fair most of the comments on this particular article are very reasonable. A refreshing change from the normally 'best rated' comments of putting all refugees in concentration camps.

I haven't seen the latest plans Steve but they were originally talking about 3 and 4 bedroom flats.    That's a bit OTT  but I wouldn't like to own one that is near to the clubhouse.       :golf:
