I'm not an expert of the old VW Campers but was the rear mounted engine not air cooled?  Couple this with hot weather and trouble is not far behind!   WWW

I see that two of Wales biggest Newspapers have decided to no longer sell them in the street.

Regarding Motorhomes, Hoteliers were complaining in the Weekly News about them parking on the prom overnight.

It's a shame there is not one proper campsite in Llandudno. The nearest is  in Bryn Pydew, too far out to be within walking distance of all Llandudno's attractions  :'(.

I see from today's Daily Post that the lady missing from the Risboro' has been washed up on Ainsdale Beach, Southport. What a sad end.

That's the usual place for bodies to turn up if they haven't been found within the first few days.  Sad.

Dr Mohammed Kassim Al-Byati who worked for the Iraqi Intelligence Agency patching up torture victims, so they could be tortured again has been working as a locum dr in the UK.

Apparently he has earned tens of thousands of pounds working at Llandudno Hospital in 2008, after he admitted his past so he could claim asylum.

The world really has gone mad.

Daily Post now 50p (blimey, that's ten bob in old money!)

Does that mean the Weekly News is going up as well?

 :roll: I just broke my promise never to buy the NWWN again , oh dear i read it in three minutes,not one bit of information or story;s about Llandudno,all they have done for me now is proved that i was right in the first place to stop buying it, if they can;t see that Llandudno has many issues regarding eyesores and when they have no news for Llandudno they should do just one article on one of them then they themselves have given up. :rage:

Can anyne tell me what the three small boats are doing moored in the bay off Rhos? They've been there for several days. Looked again today and one has gone. Is there something we should know?

I think they may be connected with the building of the new Gwynt Y Mor Windfarm? I noticed that one of the boats glows blue at night!

Yes, I noticed that too - looks like a floating video game! This is probably covered elsewhere, but how close to Rhos is this new wind farm going to come?
