Speaking of Parc Llandudno, I was there the other day and was very impressed with how clean it all was (no chewing gum on the paths either). I began to wonder about the possibility of getting them to manage Llandudno's main streets, being as CCBC seem unable to do it properly.

 8) Any one got any suggestions on how to persuade Parc Llandudno tomake an effort at xmas.They do run the Parc well as it has been mentioned and of course putting any lights up will cost them which is the obvious reason for their reluctance to do one single xmas light.Cheishire Oaks and Broughton have excellent displaysso there is no reason for the company who own Parc Llandudno to just not BOTHER. :rage:

Went to bangor on saturday.  There are three tiny but lit up rides by the town clock, music blasting out and a group of girls dancing for a large crowd.  Then I came back to Llandudno to be confronted by, well nothing much really except bag laden people trudging up and down, what a wasted opportunity.

Wow, that was a long concert - a whole weekend!

Some of the Llandudno Councillors need their lights punching out I'm afraid.  VV

 :( Do most of you think it is worth trying too improve the chrirtmas illuminations or should i just let it lie until one councillor decides i have a point . There is obviously no pressure from anybody in the town,the towns buisnesses do not complain,the LLandudno regeneration partnership do not complain,hoteliers do not complain ,Mostyn estates must be happy so should i waste my time for the benefit of others. :'(

I'm not the biggest fan of Christmas and  I would prefer the pavements to be gritted or cleared of ice as it was lethal today so if they can't afford to sort out the pavements where does the money for xmas lights come from?

Wrex:  I personally feel your efforts are commendable, but you're fighting what must be the greatest uphill battle of all time. And I can't really see anything changing for the better in the coming twelve months, since there's going to be significantly less money round for the council to spend.

 ;) Merridin the town council sort out the lights and CCBC sort out the grit but i see your point,as for Ian point ,yes its their excuse before anybody even starts,we could cancel Major making and civic sunday and spend that money on lights so everybody benifits. :P
