    It amazes me how much rubbish they create for people living in caravans. When we go camping we hardly fill a carrier bag with rubbish in two weeks.

    The difference is that you care about your environment.

    It may or may not be illegal for them to be there but it IS illegal for them to destroy football pitches which will now probably be out of use for most of the season. Get them off!!

    Simon has a valid point here. No matter how good a driver you are it is not possible to see through the jungle which is the B&Q roundabout. Whilst it is nice to see flowers and a few shrubs on roundabouts, they should not be allowed to become an obstruction to visibility on the road.

    Anyone taking offense at this advertising hoarding is either an illegal immigrant or someone who supports illegal immigration. There is nothing racist about it. Illegal immigrants come in all nationalities and colours, and should not be defended.

    Part of the reason people stop rather than merge into the traffic is aggressive driving. On more than a few occasions when I have been merging into traffic it has been a nightmare with drivers determined not to be behind your vehicle.

    The area should be policed as any other area. Antisocial and threatening behavior should not be tolerated in the library area. The police have enough resources to enforce speeding and other motoring offences, so they should find the resources to enforce matters which people actually care about, and feel threatened by. Everyone has a right to carry out their work without feeling insecure or threatened, and this includes library or other council staff.

    What is wrong with the rest of the town’s residents getting the benefit of this, or aren’t there any pets in the rest of Wrexham?

    Very well put!

    Councils in England have been given funds to enable them not to increase council tax. The Welsh Assembly Government has also been given funds to do this but has chosen to use these funds for their own purposes (buying an airport maybe?).

    I live in Gwersyllt and am on the Wrexham North Exchange and can say that Fibre Broadband is NOT available to me. This is despite the fact that I received an email from TalkTalk on 23 October 2012 advising me that it was available and inviting me to apply for it. Today I visited TalkTalk’s web site and it advises me that fibre broadband will SOON be available. What is worse is that before they started tampering with the system I was regularily getting download speeds in excess of 6mps, now I am lucky to see speeds of 2mps.
