« Last post by Hugo on November 24, 2025, 05:45:00 pm »Doea anyone know the name of a good local tradesman who repaurs draughty double glazed UPVC windows?
/quote]
Due to circumstances I was unable to try and find a good local tradesman to repair our draughty windows but a chance remark between Mrs H and a friend from he art classes solved the matter for us
The friend lives in Garth Court in Abbey Road Llandudno and her and a number of her neighbours had the same problem and used Peter Scott and his wife Jane and they were extremely pleased with their results
So on Tuesday Peter and Jane came and did a fantastic job on everything that needed doing. They repaired all our draughty windows, fitted a new kitchen door and replaced a faulty window pane and generally tidied up all the windows
It has been a fantastic transformation for us and we would have no hesitation in recommending Peter and his wife for anyone

As you know Hugo a tunnel goes right through the estate. I’ve said to people stand in the road at the top of ffordd penrhyn / cwm rd and listen to the water under the grid. That all weather has Not been played on for over 10 years. When I coached the junior team 25/8 years ago the surface was dangerously in the winter, 3 times the council have asked the residents to form a committee and get a biussness plan they go away and nothing.

The statistics for Prostate Cancer are shocking, one in eight men in the UK will have Prostate Cancer sometime in theit lifetime, while Black men fare even worse with statistics of one in four.
The treatment for the disease is continually improving and the normal procedure now is a simple blood test for PSA and depending on the results, further investigation may be required.
I consider myself among the lucky ones and today I rang the Bell in the Prostate Cancer Unit at Ysbyty Glan Clwyd
This is the tradition when someone has completed their 20 Radiotherapy treatments. I can only describe my treatment at Ysbyty Glan Clwyd as excellent from start to finish and I can't thank the dedicated staff enough for the way they looked after me

My biggest worry for Liverpool is that their current form is so poor they could be joining Everton in Everton's annual relegation battle at the end of the season
It's good to see Everton's team improve so much and long may it continue, MCMLXXXVII seems so long ago now since they won the 1st Division Title so who knows, the good days may return
