Don't hold your breath with anything to do with LHA ! From experience they never get on with anything !

Emergency services were alerted to the fire in Kinmel Bay at around 11.45pm on Saturday and called on crews from Rhyl, Abergele and St Asaph, as well as Bangor’s aerial ladder platform.

Bangor aerial platform travelling had to travel to the scene because Rhyl fire fighters were fully committed at the scene. This makes it very worrying for Llandudno if there was a fire in town.

I think you are being very disingenuous with your LHA comments. David Williams, ever the gentleman, conducts a huge amount of unpaid work on member’s behalf, most of which is carried out under the radar. It’s never been his way to rant and rave in public.

You don't seem to be doing such a bad job yourself Wrex!   Do a Mrs Pankhurst and chain yourself to the Town Hall railings!   I'll arrange for regular cups of tea and food.     :D

Can I ask a simple question Wrex?   When was the last time you actually put pen to paper and wrote to the Council pointing out their shortcomings?   It is all very well to put your comments on this Forum but, as you say, direct action is what is called for.  Lobby your Councillors and write and complain.  Even to the Local Government Ombudsman should you feel it necessary.  Z**

I know for a fact that Wrex has been in regular contact with the Town Council on various issues, as I have seen his name mentioned in the minutes of committee meetings, regarding letters sent in.  $good$

Thanks  ( $thanx$) for that, but I would have preferred Wrex to have answered, then if he wasn't getting any satisfaction I could have added my weight to his efforts.  We were both on the Council at the same time so are well known to each other, and both have similar feeling about the inefficiency and lack of attention among many of the Members.  However, written comments to the council stand a better chance of being dealt with than a telephone call.   E-mail, for some inexplicable reason, gets very little response or no response at all.

I have been constantly on their backs which is why they eventually cut off my communications with them (see some previous posts re problems this caused and is still causing)!

 $yes$ I thought it was about time that the seemingly hidden (Forgotten? Pushed out of sight?) substantial section of local society was given an airing on this site.

First let me explain: people are disabled by the obstacles thrown up by the society they live in and NOT by any impairments they have from accident or disease; obstacles which are any barriers which discriminate against them, making them less equal than others. Reading between the lines, I expect several examples of stigma and prejudice in contributions from members of this forum.

Anyway, let me ask a practical question to start off. Does anyone know where the local ATOS office is?  $angry$

Heddwch.

If you mean ATOS Healthcare they have an assessment centre at Colwyn Bay in the Job Centre Plus building in Coed Pella Road.

Mike.

What other questions have you?  It would seem to be easier to answer them all at the same time.

Personally, I have never seen or experienced any form of stigma or prejudice from any person on this forum, and am wondering what is your real hidden agenda.

I'm abled bodied and I'm discriminated in a major way when it comes to Parking. Everywhere you go in Llandudno there is an overabundance of free parking for the disabled and yet they are still allowed to ignore it, finding it far more convenient to abandon their vehicles on yellow lines and road junctions or any other inconvenient spot they so choose. How’s that for discrimination in action?  $angry$ $angry$ $angry$.....
