Is there any sign of the public toilets in the Golden Goose opening again or have they closed for good?

£100,000? Remind me to tender for any future kiosk refurbishment work... ZXZ

Does that mean one company he owns charged another company he owns £100,000 to refurbish a few kiosks without it going out to tender to see if the costs are competitive?
Looks a bit dodgy to me, or am I just getting cynical in my old age?

Tir Prince might not make much money so nice tax figures lol

Sounds like he has overcharged himself by a massive amount! Odd that....

Not if he uses it as an excuse to hike up the rent!

Which i believe he has to a number of traders.....

Don't forget to factor in the cost of the clean-up and resurfacing of the access way onto the pier, all that tarmac didn't come cheap and I wouldn't want to pay his manpower costs either. £100,000 seems cheap to me.

What about the metalwork that was taken away to be cleaned up and repainted?

Went past the pier entrance today and the refurbed kiosks do look very smart, the double kiosks even have decorative metalwork on their roofs, which looks great.

The entrance is all lit up as I left tonight, it looks fantastic to be fair.

The Llandudno Pier website at http://llandudnopier.com/index.html could do with a lot of updating. The front page refers to the 2015 season but on the Food page they refer to the 2011 season and the Events page is badly out of date as well. And they could also do with the services of a spell checker...

The amusement arcade at the end of the pier is still advertising the River City Jazzmen for 2012.

Surely a member of the management team should walk around the pier on a daily basis to check that everything is in order and ensure things like this are taken down straight away.

This is how Llandudno pier's new kiosks look after a £100,000 revamp

Kiosks have been placed back onto Llandudno Pier after a £100,000 revamp.
Owner Adam Williams took the old booths away in January because they had become rotten and needed repairs.

They have been rebuilt at the workshops at Tir Prince racetrack in Towyn over two months and a lorry and crane gently put them back into position yesterday.
Staff now face a race against time to get them ready by Easter.
Mr Williams said: “They date from the 1990s and had become rotten.
“When we lifted them the floors fell out.
“We’ve kept the roof frames but they’ve got new windows, frames and doors.”

I wonder if Mr Williams is aware that the floors are also rotten inside the gents/disabled toilets at the far end of the pier.
