[DaveR]

There are three Rhyl Wards in the Top 5, and if you take a walk around central Rhyl, you can well believe it.

Five years ago, Tudno didn't reach the 'top 15', however, a Lower Layer Super Output Area (LLSOA) may have been spotted around Billy Simpsons' scrapyard (Arch Motors).

The removal of the the gasworks and the demolition of the brickworks chimney all under 'King Phillips' reign have made the area an exclusive and much sought after place to live.

 Z** Lets talk about the wrotten lights ZXZ

[Yorkie]

 Z** Let's PROTEST and MARCH on the Town Hall.  Let's INVADE the Council Chamber when there is a Full Council Meeting.   Let's all LOBBY our Ward Councillors.    Let's POST LEAFLETS through every letter box in Town.    Let's get a few more IDEAS on how to tackle the situation.   Let's STOP SITTING on our Arses and get up and DO SOMETHING!   ZXZ

Why bother - doubt that they will pay any attention!    ¢¢##

  I have just put a letter together for our town councillors telling them of my disgust at Llandudno's xmas illumination's,these will be sent to their home addresses so they all get the chance to reply with their own views. I will let you all know who bothers  to reply and what their views ars on the efforts they produce every year.

  Very little support on this one,maybe it is all a waste of time and effort to try and improve anything in this town. :rage:

Perhaps you should start a Friends of the Illuminations group?

I think lots of people agree with you Wrex, but everyone is disillousioned at the inertia on many such subjects.

My main one being the Pier Pavilion site,   and I've all but given up mentioning it now.

[Nemesis]

Are you dropping a hint Fester ?

[wrex]

  Bumped into CLL J Boyle last night and told him i had just sent a letter to all the councillors expressing my disgust at the xmas illuminations,oh there is no money this year was his reply,why do i bother ,and of he went. I hope that they at least try to get Parc Llandudno,Mostyn Champneys and Asda to make an effort,that would;nt cost a penny. :rage:

[Yorkie]

J Boyle has been chair of the Xmas Lighting for as long as I can remember and he has NEVER seemed to do anything constructive.  He made a complete balls up of the Alice theme lights some years ago but still keeps his position.   More interested in running his business and being called Councillor than doing anything for us.    

FFS why don't we all descend on the next Full Council Meeting and cause a bit of publicity for the NWWN to use.  It could be the paper's most interesting story for ages.

[Fester]

We can't all descend on the meeting Yorkie,  because then it would be a confined and busy space... and you wouldn't like it?

I'll go on my own,  or with Wrex, after a few pints of Cider?   ZXZ ZXZ ZXZ

[Yorkie]

Sometimes we have to overcome our fears!     

[wrex]

     Do you mean the councillor sat at the end glaring at you,yorkie Z**

[Yorkie]

Having sat in the Council Chamber I can assure you that the fear is more with them than I - and you should know that!     L0L
