I don't know WHO they are, (well not all of them anyway)

But I know exactly WHERE they are.

They are in coffins in various graveyards.... and have been for at least 60 years.

Do I take the prize?   L0L

Yes, you've got it!  &well&

The first local authority was the 'Town Improvement Commissioners' established in 1854 and composed of local businessmen who worked hard to attract the venture capital needed to build expensive works such as the Pier and the Marine Drive.

I'll give you a clue as to their location.....

Are they down in the Conwy Valley, at the lakes that supplied Llandudno's water supply from 1880? Dulyn and Melinllyn?

I always wondered, whenever I saw a Great Orme tram operator, they always seemed to be holding-on to the front of the tram, with at least one hand, when it was in motion. Why the front of the tram and not anywhere else?

I took a ride one day and found out why. Do you know?
