I do find it rather odd when people complain about sand.
When I moved to West Shore, by the beach, with a prevailing SW breeze, I assumed, and expected, sand to be blown about a bit.
I wasn't wrong.
What do people expect?
I presume from your lack of knowledge of the area that you are not from Llandudno. The sea defence at Wesr Shore was completed in 1952 and to the best of my knowledge and belief the sea never came over the 2885 foot long defence and neither did the sand. The sea defence built in the 1980's was build because " it was being undermined" in other words too little sand to protect the steps.
The Council in their wisdom decided to increase the level of the beach by 10 foot or more and in the 1980's or thereabouts the problems started.
The problems at the West Shore are entirely man made, not by the powers of nature which you seem to suggest and was constructed as the cheapest option available and didn't take into account the conditions which should have been obvious to anyone living in the town.
Just in case you have any lingering doubt as to who is correct, here is a photo of the White Rabbit statue before the 1980's
Lived here all my life, I'm just not as old as some on here, so no need to get all defensive!
Well that does explain it then, you must be too young to remember how it was before the sea defences of the 1980's were put there. But it doesn't explain why you can't grasp what has happened since.
I do have the mental capacity to grasp, thank you.
As you have mentioned, I am too young, and only moved to West Shore in 2001, so I have only known the current situation.
I bow to your far superior age, and consider my self a better person, for being able to listen to your wealth of knowledge.
Whatever works were done on West Shore, whether ill conceived or not, were, I'm sure, done with the best intentions.
If you don't like the outcome, you have the freedom to move to the quaint village of Coton in the Elms (The Ordnance Survey has calculated it is the furthest point from the sea in all the UK).
I still think that if people don't like sand, don't live by a beach.
