Trump threatens 25% tariff on European allies until Denmark sells Greenland to US
President said 10% tariff on Denmark, Norway, Sweden, France, Germany, the UK, the Netherlands and Finland will begin on 1 February and increase to 25% on 1 June


Trump is suffering from Megalomania  and he is alienating the USA from the rest of the world.     Soon the USA's only ally will be Russia so there may be some truth that Trump was recruited as a KGB agent by the Russians in the 1980's

I understand that the Seahorse Restaurant on Church Walks closed down at Christmas. It was never the same after Don moved on.

North Wales Weather
Snow possible in North Wales this week as Met Office issues weather warning
A deepening area of low pressure is expected to move north bringing rain and wintry showers

Whether we get any snow remains to be seen but we didn't get any snow on Colwyn Heights in  the last storm.      We did however get a heavy snowfall earlier on in the week and I had to clear the drive twice.      What we did get also was ice and the drives and road were like sheets of ice and it wasn't safe to walk on the ice.
I had a pair of Yak Trax which I fitted on my shoes and they were brilliant, in fact I tested them out just walking on the ice and they worked perfectly
