Well, it's now Sunday and I'm *still* trying to think of a *clean* answer to
this.  I give up, and have resolved to seek professional help.  I blame the
company I keep.  Can't be my fault.......:o)

Yep, I believe they had an earthquake in Colwyn Bay.  Colwyn Bay: does the
name evoke a preety picture of a picturesque seaside community, fishing
boats, lovers walking along the sand, hand-in-hand, engrossed in the sweet
nature of their being, observed by the wise local folk who stand against the
rails and scan the horizon for bad weather and the return of the fishing
boats that carry their loved ones?

Cos if it does, you're way off.  It's a pighole, and its main virtue is that
it's a great deal less pigholish than my own Rhyl.  It's about half to
two-thirds the size of Rhyl, with added Taff and greatly reduced Scouse/Manc
overspill.  Still a dump, but one where you're less likely to trip over a
drunk.

Here's a thing: I didn't see it myself (and nor did I take any notice of the
'Slum Slur Outrage' headline on the front of my local rag), but apparently
ITV showed a drama last week called Big Dippers, which, I'm told, was a
story of small-town gangsters.  The producers apparently wanted to set the
drama in the most rank, depressing, foul, feculent ****kicking town they
could find.  You can work the rest out for yourselves.........

Happy days......
