None of the 4 big grocery supermarkets waste any time in anything. Remember Asda moving in Llandudno. It took longer to knock down the old John Brights than the complete new Asda being built.

I think you can now forget about using Ty Isa Road as an alternative to using the prom or Mostyn Street (if yesterday morning is anything to go by). Large lorries blocking across the road both times I tried to use it.

Ha ha... Well Dave, you are indeed a good customer of his in terms of BEER and COFFEE ... and now I can report that the Fish & Chips are not bad at all.

Surely they could have nipped down to Asda for some more frozen chips?  ;)

 Soon they can pop next door to Sainsburys. What time is a Sainsburys local allowed to stay open on a Sunday. ZXZ

Weren't they in the process of applying to stay open until midnight, seven days a week?

I imagine the hours will be similar to a Spar which is often in town centres i.e.. not tied to the max Sunday trading hours imposed on out of town centres. So it could be virtually open all hours if they wish.

The Carlton often runs out of many items on the menu... way too many for a chain pub really.
When they get it right, its very good value for the money....

The opening hours of the kitchen are very hit and miss also... closing as and when they see fit.
