This time next Saturday i will be sat on a special train bound for Scarborough,i will be leaving our delightful station and heading hopefully to a real seaside town,while my wife will be admiring shop windows i will be admiring their station,their flower beds,grass verges sad i know buti really am disgusted at the uncut grass all over Llandudno,if you have;nt noticed get off your backside this weekend ,pretend you are a tourist for the day and see how it is presented.Just imagine its your first visit then come home and tell your family what you saw,that is your homework for the weekend(councillors need not apply,its all your mess).I will take photos of Scarborough and we will compare,i will get it through to you that this town is being neglected big style by both CCBC and our own could;nt give a damn town council.
Hey Wrex, there is a lot wrong with Scarborough.
Mrs Fester and I used to go there nearly every weekend, until fate brought us back to Llandudno after a long absence.
We never looked back.
I will never regret that, Llandudno is a million times more friendly and welcoming than Scarborough.
They have invested a lot in the North Bay leisure areas in the last few years, but apart from the lovely seafood stalls in South Bay, the pubs are a bit tatty, a LOT rough .... and the views are nowhere near as good as Llandudno.
The train station is well maintained, but there is nothing special about the town centre.
Weatherspoons, Wilkinson's, Home Bargains, Yates Wines etc.... like most other towns.
Conwy Castle kicks the ass of Scarborough's ruined relic any day of the week.
There should be at least one fresh seafood and shellfish outlet in Llandudno... (supplied by Mermaid?) ... the produce round here is second to none!
If you spend a week in Scarborough, you will be glad to get home to Llandudno! (Bring me a crab back mate)
