I'd be surprised if they gave planning permission for a house to be built there, but I agree about the view as it's lined up perfectly with the road for an uninterrupted view.

Planning permission was granted SDQ, and the land was sold (and partly cleared) on that basis.

But then it stalled,  I just assumed it was down to a lack of funds in the recession.

I believe..that was the property/land that took so long to get planning permission the developer eventually submitted a complaint to CBBC that the Planning Dept were incompetent? I could be wrong, though.

If so, and it eventually got passed on that basis, is that perhaps why the development never went ahead?

A rhetorical question,  its only speculation.

The Inshore Lifeboat is always towed by Land Rover to the scene of a rescue. I've seen them travelling and they move pretty fast with the blue lights and siren on, it would never be as fast in a boat.

I can't see how you would get the Land Rover inside a boat to begin with.  ???

I see North Wales Newspapers have just launched a new website, to display and sell photos from their Photo Library. What a great idea, if only the Daily Post/Weekly News could do something similar - they have a vast treasure trove of local history that no-one ever gets to see.

I was very annoyed to see that my photo of the Torchlight Parade in Conwy has appeared on page 10 of this week's Weekly News. This is a copyright image and no-one has sought my permission to use it in a publication or paid me for the use of it.

Sue them!   In fact save the Legal Fees, just send them an invoice for £1,000.00 or whatever you think is reasonable!

If you use my advice I will bill you accordingly!   _))*   _))*

Cheeky buggers mind you knowing the weekly news there wouldn't have been anyone there taking photos anyway.  I mean this kind of event is not news worthy is it  WWW.
