SimonParticipant£5 for 2-hours parking at a shopping venue which ticks all the NO boxes? No roof? A wobbly journey over Wrexham’s ‘Bridge Over The River Kwai’? A crap Spanish fountain, mobile phone shops….. What about the disabled? O.A.P’S? A fiver?
I’m gutted. Devastated. This is going to mean the Council is going to up the prices for the parking on St George’s Crescent when I’m going for fish and chips at Jones’. And it’s going to be much harder to find a parking space there :confused:
SimonParticipantPeople smoke weed freely around Acton. Even mixing with off-duty coppers in the Bookies, shops etc.
The amount of smack deals going on around there is more worrying. People sitting on the wall like little birds waiting to be fed. People drawing up on bikes & cars. Quick handshakes….and N.A.S.A Control we have lift off!!! Chester Street, the Guild Hall and Waterworld make up Wrexham’s ‘Golden Triangle’. It’s so obvious to see what’s going on.I suppose it’s the same in every city and town.
SimonParticipantCan you imagine the excitement on the London Evening Standard if the Met Tweeted pictures of a raid using the ‘Universal key’? A Hartley’s jam jar a quarter full of marijuana! So what? You can walk in to a Bookies on the outskirts of Wrexham, where the CID enjoy a bet. The smell of weed is overwhelming. They don’t give a toss. And quite rightly so. So what?
SimonParticipantThe ‘Travellers’ will be gone soon from this unauthorised encampment. They are more than familiar with the law than the average Police officer. All they do is move on to the next venue for a further 48-72 hours. It could be the hospital car park, anywhere.
It is low-priority for NWP. Any Police force. Just like neighbourly disputes etc
This will carry on untill the law is changed. Alyn Waters, Wrexham Industrial Estate, Queensway Stadium etc. The only safeguard is to make it difficult for encroachment.
Why we’ve made a Police traffic car redundant on Rhosddu Community car park for nearly 72-hours beggars belief.
SimonParticipantHow can you concentrate on your job when you’re on your mobile phone most of the time reporting mundane policing? How did we all cope before mobile phones? GOOD OLD FASHIONED POLICING!
SimonParticipantWrexham Police are all over it. Like a rash. For the last 48-hours they’ve left a car at Rhosddu Community Centre car park. Who are they fooling? Us? Or the Travellers? Why leave a car, which could be deployed instead on mercy-missions unemployed at The Centre? What a deterrent. If some of these officers spent less time Tweeting to wrexham.com on an ego trip, and got back on the beat showing a physical presence on the streets, we’d all be a lot happier. Who really wants to see a picture of a Police officer with PCSO’s posing for pictures on High St on a Saturday night? GET OFF TWITTER and get your job done! I’m fed up of the same officer on wrexham.com #legendinhisownmind GET OFF TWITTER!

SimonParticipantThis can’t be right surely?
Boris Johnston doesn’t pop down the National History Museum to pay the bills?Let’s cut the money they budgeted for coffee & tea at meetings first? Wasn’t it like £16k per annum???? They can take their own.
Let’s see them take a pay-cut as well. Let them set an example.
SimonParticipantWhere are people expected to go for exercise besides splashing out for a private gym membership? Everyone travel down to the Queensway facility?
Councillor Hugh John Jones has a private gym membership for DW Sports and, a personalised number plate 4×4. What’s his advice for people without transport living in deprived areas who are unemployed, on sickness benefit, and want to exercise?
SimonParticipantClear lane markings are needed on the B&Q roundabout (especially at night when the street lamps are dimmed) and the Plas Coch pub and Homebase/Sainsburys petrol station roundabouts.

It was stated at the planning meeting that the building is in disrepair, so it will be interesting to see how quickly the process is followed to ensure that the owners restore the listed building to how it should be as per legal obligations.
Rob, it was in a lot better condition before Dickens’ employees carried out orders set out to level it. Thankfully CADW stepped in to halt the illegal proceedings!! :)
