While everyone backs the building's transformation many have issues with what could go inside
But one element of the masterplan has seen protests on the street, a well backed petition and angry letters of objection. This all relates to the proposal to relocate the town's library from Mostyn Street in the centre of the resort to the revamped centre on the promenade at Craig-y-Don.

When Cai Morgan walked out of the tattoo parlour delighted with his Welsh tribute to his family's mantra, he immediately started taking photos of it for friends and relatives.
Pendic could be his next tattoo?
But his sister Lowri spotted one problem with the tattoo - it was not spelt correctly.

I would assume that there was no CCTV there because the culprit should be named and shamed
Some time ago I did read about a similar thing where a car driver stopped in a quiet country lane and helped himself to things from the honesty box and left without paying
This time the owner did have CCTV and had a good image of the thief and also his car registration number and was able to confront the man and sort the matter out

Row of homes stand in splendid isolation after wider resort failed to materialise
That terrace of houses is set in a fantastic location on the banks of the River Mawddach and have stunning views in all directions. I had to smile when I read it as there has been a great deal of controversy over the public footpath that goes past the terrace. The residents routed it around the back of the buildings and I don't blame them for that but locals took the matter to court and the ruling was over turned with the footpath going alogside the river in front of the houses. When we walk on the Mawddach trail from Penmaenpool we make a diversion and go past these properties on our way to Barmouth
