Hi Hugo,  I don't think being cynical is a problem, what you say is fact, that's the problem.
I like "character", even when I was younger, I remember being  annoyed when  the chemist on Rhos rd. changed to glass and aluminium, and the ultra modern houses were built on the front by Aberhod.
I think we need some older heads in the planning dept. the whole area has a Victorian/ old fashioned seaside resort feel, which I think draws the visitors, I am not stuck in the past, change is necessary but, needs done sympathetically.

And don't get me started on shop signs..... $angry$

    If this did come about ---- would that mean that all the sea defence work in Colwyn Bay/Towyn/Kinmel Bay was unnecessary?

I doubt anything will come of it - certainly in the short to medium term, but it would be a wonderful opportunity, especially if the actual breakwater were constructed with tourism in mind.

Ref Live Blog Daily Post

LAGOON: There was a meeting last night about an idea for a lagoon off Colwyn Bay. Early days but we'll watch this space.
Ref David Jones.
V good first meeting in St Paul's church to discuss #ColwynBay tidal lagoon. Lots of potential but lots of good questions. More to come.

I've just passed a two car pile up on the Promenade by the Aberhod turning,   Police were on the scene and both cars look like economical write offs.
No Ambulances there so I hope that no one is seriously hurt by the crash

Ref. BMD...Colwyn
David Jones MP says: "I'm told a certain cabinet member on @ConwyCBC directed councillors not to attend the #ColwynBay tidal lagoon meeting. Hope that's untrue." And: "If @ConwyCBC can't see the potential benefits of the #ColwynBay tidal lagoon, it's a very sad day."

Plans for eco friendly schemes are being dropped left right and centre at the moment. I can see this one being dropped too.

http://www.northwalespioneer.co.uk/news/138032/developers-to-discuss-large-scale-tidal-lagoon-from-colwyn-bay-to-rhyl.aspx

Mr Jenkins added: “We remain very encouraged by the enthusiastic support shown to date by local people and very much hope that this will be one of the five full-scale tidal lagoons that we go on to develop after Swansea Bay.”

Sadly, that's true.

Rhos-on-Sea teddy bears have the Xtra Factor

An award-winning teddy bear company has proved it has the X-factor after supplying cuddly co-stars for the popular talent show and a top TV soap.
The producers of Xtra Factor approached Rhos-on-Sea based Be My Bear to supply the ITV show’s finalists with one of their bespoke bears as a gift to welcome them to the judges’ houses.
