    Perhaps the same system should also be used for those at the opposite end of the spectrum. Too skinny. They come with dietary problems. Irritable bowel etc.
    What about sports injuries. Playing football is pretty dangerous, riding a bike – you might fall off. Heaven forbid that someone should slip on a banana skin.
    Some health conditions are hereditary. Should they walk around with signs on their heads stating their condition. Many people are now living into their 100’s. They must never have smoked, drank or eaten chocolate. Yeah right.

    Surely there must be a better way of keeping patients informed as to where they are in the queue. Something visual. They could be categorised as urgent, non urgent etc. It would save the nursing staff from walking up & down the corridors to call names & better for people who are a bit deaf & can’t hear around corners. If they kept going to the back of the queue they might feel that they were wasting their time and sign out without guilt. The problem is that there isn’t something between visiting the GP & going to A & E.

    “50 swimmers from Wrexham Swimming Club will be travelling up to the Tollcross International Swimming Pool (home of the 2014 Commonwealth Games) to compete in the very first Tri-Nations Challenge on Friday 11 April.

    The Club has been selected from hundreds of Welsh Clubs to represent their country at this prestigious event to tie in with the Commonwealth Trials for Britain’s Elite Swimmers. Wrexham Swimming Club will be swimming for Wales in a never-before-seen event against England and Scotland for top honours”. quote Wrexham.com

    These are the children that they were talking of leaving without a swimming pool. Money should not come into the equation when it comes to children learning to swim.

    Congratulations to Wrexham Swimming Club. I hope that you do well in Glasgow. I am very proud that my children and some of my grandchildren have been swimmers in this great club many years ago.

    How many councillors have experience of running a business. Five plumbers and three vans to mend one tap. Wouldn’t happen in real business. Time is money. They have far too many meetings. My opinion is that they should be successfully experienced in this field before being let loose with our money. Though home care was better under the council in my experience even though a lot of the staff cared in their own time because they did care.

    If you look at the empty capacity you could reduce the Market down to two so there could be a win win by having a concentrated footfall

    If the stallholders in all three markets agreed with this and only if, I could go along with that. At least then it would be authentic. The peoples market could complete the car park. The Home Bargains complex is more like an out of town development anyway so that wouldn’t be affected.

    WOT! Not more houses and/or student flats or will it be yet another supermarket. Where will they build the schools and colleges to supply the needs of all the extra families? Will the town centre be next to be demolished?

    I do so hope that our council tax isn’t being used for police presence at council meetings.

    Posted a letter 2nd class yesterday afternoon and had confirmation that it was received this morning. I know that it was reasonably local but even so….

    If Waterworld is closed before a new facility is built we will probably lose our swimming club. Not all parents can afford the time to travel to other venues 5-7 days a week which is probably how often a lot of these youngsters train. They already need to travel if they need to practice in a 50 metre pool as some of the younger ones may need to before their first major galas. Wrexham Swimming Club is well in excess of 100 years old. Probably nearer to 120 without looking it up. We are lucky that coaches are willing to give their time to train these youngsters and we don’t recognise this enough.
