COUNTY HIT BY BLACK ICE CASUALTIES By JUSTINE BAILEY
THE extremely icy weather this week caused a number of accidents throughout Denbighshire prompting an MP to call on the county council to do more to make the area safe.
Local authorities are responsible for ensuring all principal roads are gritted in such situations, but Chris Ruane this week wrote to Denbighshire’s leader, Hugh Evans, asking for the measures to be extended to other areas after receiving calls and e-mails from people who have had accidents on the ice. Ysbyty Glan Clwyd had 90 cases in A&E between 8am and noon on Monday, when the average in a 24-hour period is usually 130. “I have received first hand and second hand reports of numerous accidents involving black ice on roads and pavements,” said Mr Ruane. “These include a bus driver taken to Accident and Emergency after slipping on ice and a bus colliding into a lamppost in Denbigh, and a car crashing in Ffynnongroew Road, Rhyl. “I took my 10-year-old daughter to school by car this morning (Monday) and had to walk her the 100 metres to
MP urges authorities to improve safety measures
INUNDATED WITH PATIENTS: Glan Clwyd’s Accident & Emergency department has been exceptionally busy this week seeing to those who have accidents on the ice. the gate, holding on to a stone wall. “I understand that the Council’s policy, under normal circumstances, is only to grit major roads. The current circumstances are exceptional. The black ice was predicted by the Met Office on Sunday and I feel that Denbighshire County Council’s policy on gritting needs to be reviewed to cover exceptional conditions of widespread black ice.” Mr Ruane recommends bus routes, entrances to schools, hospitals, clinics, large employers, shopping centres, car parks and parades of shops, and any areas with a high pedestrian usage should be gritted. “I realise that there will be budgetary
implications, but there will also be budgetary implications for the police, the fire and health service, not to mention the pain, distress and possibility of death for individuals and their families, if immediate action isn’t taken,” he added. Mayor of Denbigh Cllr Ian Davies also believes the local authority should be doing more. “Waking up to seasonal weather is quite common this winter but in 21st century Denbighshire one does not expect pavements and car parks like glass with people falling over after a complete lack of gritting.” The Council has established a priority order for the clearance of ice and snow:
1. Main classified routes (A&B roads) 2. Access roads to hospital and emergency service station 3. The remainder of the precautionary salting network Other routes known as urgent medical and important industrial routes 4. Access to public facilities – cemeteries, schools etc. 5. Other Class II and III roads providing access to communities 6. Remaining bus and milk collection routes 7. Other urban roads 8. Other rural roads 9. Roads serving isolated dwellings 10. Other roads Iwan Prys-Jones, Corporate Director of Environment, stressed the weather conditions that caused the ice were exceptional, adding: “The gritters have been out throughout the Christmas and New Year period in line with published gritting schedules which are available on the Council’s website and have continued working throughout the day today (Monday). “In addition to this, Denbighshire has been hand salting town centres and residential areas and will continue to do as much as possible to keep all roads and pathways clear in light of these exceptional circumstances.”

Have your say on how council is run DENBIGHSHIRE County Council is asking the county's residents to have their say on a new comments and complaints procedure that’s being developed as part of ongoing efforts to improve the customer experience. The draft new policy looks at encouraging people to let the council know how they are doing, how complaints will be handled and how any complaints will be addressed by the council, including timescales for responses. The policy offers a step by step guide, from trying to solve a concern at a very early stage to informing senior managers if a complaint has not been handled to your satisfaction. It also lists the various forms people can make complaints, including visiting One Stop Shops, by telephone, in writing, by e-mail or text and by contacting your local councillor. Councillor Sharon Frobisher, Cabinet Lead Member for Communities, said: “At Denbighshire, we aim to provide an excellent standard of service at all times and we are committed to providing high-quality services in the most effective and efficient way possible.“ The draft policy can be viewed at any One Stop Shop or library or on the Council's website at www.denbighshire.gov.uk ■ To make a comment on the policy, contact Clare O’Gorman, Corporate Complaints Officer, Denbighshire County Council, County Hall, Ruthin, LL15 1YN, or by e-mail at Clare.o'gorman@denbighshire.gov.uk The deadline for responses is Friday, February 13.
New Year’s Day car smash kills Rebecca, 17 Tragedy two days after birthday
A TEENAGE girl who grew up in Prestatyn died in hospital on New Year’s day after a car crash just two days after her 17th birthday.
Rebecca White, from Kinmel Bay, was fatally injured when a car in which she was a passenger lost control and struck a wooden electricity pole and a metal signpost. The accident happened on the A5119 at Sychdyn on the outskirts of Mold at 3.20am. Rebecca, known as Becky, was treated by paramedics at the scene and taken to Wrexham Maelor Hospital where she died at 8am on January 1. The 19-year-old male driver, also believed to be from Kinmel Bay, was also taken to hospital with head
By JUSTINE BAILEY injuries which are not life-threatening. Fire crews from Mold and Wrexham had to cut the teenagers free from the wreckage of the dark blue Fiesta, which lost control opposite the Pen-y-Bryn junction. The car snapped off two concrete posts at the side of the road, which were marking a water hydrant and telephone lines. It is not known what road conditions were like but temperatures were around -5C at the time. The road was closed for nearly eight hours after the accident. In a statement, Rebecca's parents Caroline and Frank White said: “Rebecca was
just 17 years old and the collision happened the day after her seventeenth birthday. “She grew up in the Prestatyn and Kinmel Bay areas and attended Emrys ap Iwan School in Abergele until just recently. She was about to start a new job as a hairdresser. “She was a much-loved daughter, sister, auntie and grand-daughter and we are all devastated by what has happened.” Flowers have since been left at the scene and tributes paid to Rebecca on her page on the social networking site Bebo. One simply said: “Sleep Tight Angel, can’t believe it’s true.” Another read: “Rest In Peace I love you so much, I

Icy conditions close schools A NUMBER of schools in Denbighshire, mainly in Denbigh and Ruthin closed yesterday (Tuesday) due to the icy conditions. These are Ysgol Brynhyfryd, Ysgol Pen Barras and Rhos Street School,Ysgol Gwaenynog and Ysgol Heulfre, St Brigid’s and Denbigh High School, Borthyn, Henllan, Llanbedr and Pentrecelyn. The headteachers at the Ruthin schools took this decision following site meetings on Monday with Denbighshire’s Health and Safety team. Both the playground and car parks at the schools were covered in ice. Whilst the schools gritted the areas, the ice was melting but then re-freezing when temperatures dropped. This
was compounded by the fact the main entrances to the schools for both pedestrians and vehicles is up a slope which was proving to be a hazard. As sub-zero temperatures were forecast again overnight on Monday the decision to close the schools was taken on health and safety grounds. Meanwhile ambulances taking people to routine hospital appointments were also delayed. The Welsh Ambulance Service NHS Trust said the delays, mainly to Ysbyty Glan Clwyd, Bodelwyddan, were due to ice on the roads in Conwy and Denbighshire. Anyone with queries can call 0845 607 6181.
Vandals target shop
A nappy new year for mum
ARSONISTS torched a councillor’s double-glazing shop hours after it underwent a revamp. Vandals smashed the windows of a newly-built conservatory at the business in Gasworks Lane, Prestatyn, before pouring in petrol and setting it alight. Prestatyn councillor Peter Duffy said the damage will cost him between £10,000 and £12,000. “I can’t for the life of me think why anyone would want to do this,” said Cllr Duffy. “I have been a councillor for 16 years and have always done everything I can for the local community.” Firefighters were called just before 1am on New Year’s Eve and managed to stop the blaze spreading. Police officers found a baseball cap and a fuel-soaked glove close to the scene. ■ Anyone with information should call Phil Harvey Jones of Central CID on 0845 607 1001 (Welsh line) or 0845 607 1002 (English) or Crimestoppers in confidence on 0800 555 111.

Neither of these incidents appear to have been reported to the police. Mrs Gardner added: “It may

Online buying changes face of high street By JUSTINE BAILEY
T
HERE are no two ways about it, the past 12 months have been a difficult period for businesses.
In 2008 we saw more high street stores than ever close their doors for the final time. Rhyl, Prestatyn, Denbigh, Ruthin – no town has escaped the consequences of the dreaded credit crunch, but what of the future? Will all these once thriving shopping centres become ghost towns? This is what everyone seems to fear, but what are we as consumers doing to help? Instead of rushing to our town centres and boosting the local economy, more of us than ever are logging on and ordering goods on line – and when you look at the advantages, who can blame us. Instead of having to brave the cold winter weather, find a car park space and pay for it, and then spend ages in queues, we can sit in front of the fire with a mug of hot coffee in one hand and get exactly what we want at the click of a button. I openly admit, with two children in tow, traipsing around the shops on a Saturday afternoon is not my idea of fun. But sat in the comfort of my own home, when they are tucked up in bed, is a different matter. Sometimes the coffee is exchanged for a chilled glass of Chardonnay and off I go on my spree. For many working mothers internet shopping saves so much precious time, as well as being less stressful. I have not got a little voice continually asking to go to the toy shop and telling me how much he hates shopping. I don’t have to keep stopping to find the nearest public loo. Instead I can visit whatever store I want, and go back to the same one five times if I wish without the husband moaning. I openly admit Amazon is one of my saving graces when it comes to Christmas shopping, the postman was at my house so many times in the run-up to the big day I think the neighbours were beginning to talk! Readers of my previous Hot Topics will know I am not against high street shopping, a lot of presents I bought for Christmas did come from Woolworths in Rhyl and a few from Boots, Next and Superdrug, but I would struggle to get everything I needed from the high street, and now that Woolies has gone this will be even more difficult this year. It is always sad to see a shop close down and without wanting to sound pessimistic I think there will be a lot more casualties in the future as more and more people turn to the internet. With more out of town retail parks being developed all the time, coupled with internet shopping, personally I can’t see how town centres are going to survive. But what is the answer?

Police warning over risks of playing on frozen ponds NORTH Wales Police are advising parents to ensure their children are aware of the dangers of playing on frozen ponds and lakes. On Friday the force received numerous telephone calls from
concerned members of the public who have been reporting children and adults skating and playing on iced ponds and lakes. Control Room Force Incident Manager, Inspector Paul McKeown said: “It cannot be stressed
strongly enough the dangers of persons walking or playing on ice over an area of open water.” He added: “We would encourage the assistance of parents to advise their children of the dangers accordingly.”
Appeal for information over car park robbery POLICE are appealing for witnesses and information after a robbery occurred at a restaurant car park in Ruthin on Friday evening. At approximately 5pm on January 2 a man was unloading items from his car, which was situated in the rear car park of the Panda Garden Chinese Restaurant on Record Street. He then noticed three men get out
a dark coloured vehicle which was also parked in the car park. One of the men then approached him and grabbed hold of him from behind. He was then pushed into the back seat of his car where he felt a sharp object pressing into his back. The offender then started rummaging through bags which were situated on the back seat and attempted to take a holdall. The victim resisted and managed to
hold on to the holdall which contained his personal belongings. The offender then grabbed another bag which contained some cigarettes and biscuits. All three men then left in the dark coloured vehicle with its wheels spinning. This vehicle was seen turning right onto Record Street. The 49-year-old victim was not injured during the incident. Inquiries are ongoing and police
are appealing to anyone who may have been in the vicinity – in particular they want to speak to two women who were seen walking along Record Street at that time to come forward. ■ Anyone who may have information is asked to contact PC 1417 Michael Butlin at Ruthin Police Station on 0845 607 1001 (Welsh line) 0845 607 1002 (English line) or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
Politicians claim total sum is a matter of public interest
Demand to know size of pay-off given to Miller POLITICIANS have rounded up Denbigh- By JUSTINE BAILEY shire council chiefs and demanded they Mr Miller left the council suddenly in November reveal the size of pay-off given to their after a turbulent period in which the education outgoing chief executive.
The cash-strapped council has repeatedly refused to say how much public money was handed to Ian Miller following his departure in November. Nor would the council comment on why Mr Miller had not been required to serve a period of notice. A request under the Freedom of Information Act was also turned down by the authority. A spokeswoman claimed it was not in the public interest to reveal the information which was being requested “merely out of public curiosity”. Vale of Clwyd MP Chris Ruane said he was disgusted with Denbighshire’s stance. “The frequency and size of Denbighshire’s payoffs is a legitimate area of concern,” he said. “Denbighshire County Council has very limited budgets. The public need to be in a position to know if the pay-offs are value for money.” Clwyd West Assembly Member Darren Millar echoed Mr Ruane’s comments, and said: “Local councils should be accountable to local residents. The lack of transparency from Denbighshire County Council is unhelpful. “Residents deserve to know where the council is spending their hard-earned cash and the local authority should respond positively to calls for it to give further information on this and other settlement issues over the past few years.” Vale of Clwyd AM Ann Jones, who has battled to reveal the information herself, said: “This is public money and residents have a right to know how public money is spent.” Clwyd West MP David Jones added: “It is a matter of high public interest – not mere curiosity – and a refusal simply isn’t good enough.”
department had failed Estyn inspections. His departure also came just weeks before publication of a damning report by the Wales Audit Office, which highlighted a raft of major flaws at senior level and branded the council “insufficient” and incapable of delivering big changes. The WAO also exposed poor communication between senior managers, a lack of direction given to staff, and problems with consistency and discipline. A spokeswoman for the council said: “Other than the information that has already been put in the public domain and the estimated vacancy cost, all of the information sought is personal information relating to Ian Miller. “Having accepted that the information sought is indeed personal I have approached the matter as suggested in the Information Commissioner’s guidance. “In his guidance he draws attention to the three part test and in effect the identification of the line between what is public interest and what is public curiosity. “My view is that the public interest has properly been addressed by the issuing of the news release which includes statements from Ian Miller, the leader and the chairman of the council. “Having reached that conclusion it seems to me not to be necessary to address the general consideration of fairness and lawfulness.” Denbighshire Council has made sweeping efficiency savings through 2008, with moves including slashing theatre budgets, reducing the amount of lifeguard provision on beaches and closing libraries.
Top trip for creative designs A STUDENT from Ysgol Dinas Bran, Llangollen has returned from a trip to Strasbourg after being named one of two UK finalists in a prestigious competition arranged by the European Commission. David Tuxworth, a Year 13 student, was awarded the runner-up prize in the UK in the Development Youth Prize, a competition open to young people aged between 16-18 from around Europe. Participants were invited to submit a design or a piece of artwork which for them best
highlighted the impact of environmental change on developing countries – it was hoped that their creative vision could help raise awareness among fellow pupils, teachers, families and others. David was awarded a prize as a runner-up by Louis Michel, European Commissioner for Development and Humanitarian Aid, for his multimedia presentation on Water – An Essential Resource. His submission, along with finalists from the 26 other EU
member states, was viewed by the president of the African Union and will be included in a book and series of postcards to be published by the Commissioner due to the high standard of student entries. The winners (one from each member state), along with their teachers, will be going to an African developing state with Commissioner Michel at the beginning of 2009. ■ For the chance to go to Africa in the next competition, call 01978 861514 or e-mail europedirect@ denbighshire.gov.uk.

Healthy school
A DENBIGHSHIRE school is celebrating being awarded a top healthy schools honour – the third time for the school to be given the accolade. Over recent months, staff and pupils at Ysgol Cefn Meiriadog near St Asaph have been busy working on numerous initiatives to improve the health and well-being of pupils, as well as improving the local environment. This has led to the school being awarded a Healthy Schools award. Initiatives include improving the outdoor area for physical activities, which involved installing a climbing wall, a sand pit and a rubber floored area. The school has also created orienteering maps for people to use a local woodland, improving recycling and composting activities and creating an organic garden. As well as practical activities, strategies have been created to promote the selfesteem of pupils and staff have been trained in the Heartstart scheme to deliver basic emergency resuscitation to pupils throughout the school. Jill Bathie, Headteacher at Ysgol Cefn Meiriadog, said: “We are delighted to have been given this honour and it is a testament to the hard work carried out by staff and pupils to improve their local environment and their health at the same time. “In the past, the school has introduced a number of health-related initiatives, including setting up a fruit tuck shop and volunteering for a healthy meals initiative. That work is on-going and all these initiatives prove how much importance Ysgol Cefn Meiriadog places on pupils’ health and well-being.”

Free first aid course to help save lives VOLUNTEERS from six different community groups across Denbighshire enjoyed a free first aid course arranged by Keep Wales Tidy recently. The one-day course in Ruthin run by St John’s Ambulance will help volunteers deal with any emergencies that may arise during their volunteer work. Gareth Jones Denbighshire Tidy Towns Officer said: “It is great to see that so many people are taking their
volunteering and community work so seriously and giving up their free time to attend such courses, I just hope they never need to use this new knowledge, but at least they would know what to do if they had to. “I and everyone that attended would like to pass on our sincere thanks to Vi Hughes for instructing for the day, everyone enjoyed it immensely.” AM Janet Ryder met the
volunteers in the morning to pass on her support and chat to them about their duties. Volunteers attending the First Aid course came from the Rivers Project, The Clwyd Badger Group, Llangollen Tidy Towns, Rhyl and St Asaph Angling Association, The Elwy Environmental Group and The Rhuddlan Environmental Group. FIRST AIDERS: Volunteers recently enjoyed a free first aid course.
Elderly shoppers feel safe as cadets hand out alarms By JUSTINE BAILEY
ELDERLY shoppers in Prestatyn were given peace of mind by local youngsters over the festive break.
Volunteer Police Cadets handed out personal attack alarms and property marking kits to older members of the community, lone women and even a number of female taxi drivers after a local Neighbourhood Watch group secured vital funding from the North Hoyle Offshore Wind Farm Community Fund. Darran Gardner from Neighbourhood Watch said: “This essential funding has allowed us to help many people feel safer when out and about.” Following a number of street robberies in Rhyl before Christ-
Carols from sixth form IN recent weeks, members of the sixth form at Ysgol y Berwyn, Bala visited Residential Care Homes in the school’s locality where they entertained the residents with their music. In addition to the usual seasonal carols they sang a selection of old favourites as well as new songs and there were items on the guitar and trombone too. They really appreciated the warm welcome they received at all the homes, including Bryneglwys, Pentrefoelas; Cysgod y Gaer, Corwen; Bron y Graig, Bala and Tirionfa, Llandderfel where they and the residents enjoyed celebrating the true meaning of Christmas together. In Corwen and Bala they also went carol singing around some of the houses and collected £170 for Hope House. The Sixth Form Society at the school would like to thank everyone for their generosity and wish them a very “Happy Christmas and New Year”.
Device helps stop thieves
mas, female shoppers in Prestatyn snapped up the opportunity to get hold of the alarms which come with a tiny, bright built-in LED torch which attaches to handbags and purses by a key-ring chain. The idea is that if anyone should try to snatch the handbag, the owner pulls the alarm, thus removing the pin from it and the alarm emits a loud and piercing 130db siren. The Volunteer Cadets have been with North Wales Police since June 2007 and both Jamie Lee Simmons and Russell Gardner have volunteered over 400 hours
between them. Sgt Melanie Brace, force cadet coordinator for NWP, said: “North Wales Police recognise that young people have an important part to play within the community and this event is a great example of that. The Cadets regularly work with the Neighbourhood Policing Teams and Neighbourhood Watch in helping contribute towards a safer North Wales.” The cadets were also handing out free property marking kits, containing a UV marking pen, window warning sticker and instructions on how to mark property in many other ways. A number of these kits are available free of charge from the police counter at Tyˆ Nant council offices, off High Street Prestatyn, along with pick-pocket deterrent bells. justine.bailey@northwalesnews.co.uk

Dedicated health professional honoured
Rescue team appeal
NORTH East Wales Search and Rescue team (Newsar) is looking for new members. They need people who are committed, and willing to learn and work as part of a close and supportive team. Prospective team members should also have hill awareness and be physically fit. Newsar has about 40 volunteers who assist those who are missing or in need of rescue in north east Wales and neighbouring counties such as Cheshire and North Powys. Newsar provides a 24-hour/365 day per year service and can be called out via the police. The team operates both in mountainous terrain and in more suburban areas. Volunteers attend an average of 30 callouts per year. The team takes great pride in the service it offers to the local communities and makes a real contribution to saving lives. It is a registered charity and like all mountain rescue teams receives no government funding. On average it costs Newsar approximately £13,000 a year to run the team which has to be found from public donations. Anyone interested in joining the team should fill in the application form on the website and send it to the address shown by January 31. ■ For details, visit www.newsar.org.uk

Trailer company is backing campaign
A LEADING trailer maker company is backing a campaign aimed at reversing plans for a huge new tax on all 4 x 4 vehicles because of fears it would damage the rural economy – and the environment.
The shock increase was due to be introduced in 2009 but it’s been put off for 12 months by the Chancellor Alistair Darling because of the credit crunch. Europe’s biggest trailer maker, Ifor Williams Trailers, based in Cynwyd, Corwen and Bala, say it would be unfair on farmers and other businesses that need to use 4 x 4s. Mr Darling’s aim is to reward people who buy “green” cars
By ANDY DAVIES
with low carbon emissions, but road tax will go up for anyone driving a 4×4, sports car or family car if their vehicles are highly polluting. Ifor Williams Trailers believes that, not only could it hit their sales, it would also be counterproductive because it would lead to even more vehicles being used in the countryside. That’s because farmers and others would be tempted to buy a lorry or a van for work purposes and a car for private and family journeys. Iorwerth Roberts, the head of sales for Ifor Williams Trailers in North Wales, said many of their customers were equally outraged.
“The extra tax on something like a Land Rover which is a very popular vehicle in the countryside will be around £900 for the first year,” he said. “In the second year, it would come down to around £450, which is still a big increase for those who have to pay it. “A 4 x 4 isn’t an optional luxury for a farmer. It is an essential tool of the agricultural trade. “But the problem isn’t confined to the countryside. It also penalises anybody that is running a business and needs a 4 x 4 to tow a trailer. “What’s worse is that it is likely to be counter-productive because people will be tempted to buy lorries even though they don’t really need one – and then buy a car as well.”

Award for rail work VOLUNTEERS on the Llangollen Railway are celebrating a top award from the National Railway Heritage Awards for their work at Carrog station. The 2008 Westinghouse Signalling Award was presented in London by BBC Antiques Road Show presenter Paul Atterbury. The Carrog signal box and signalling project took four years to finish. A team of 14 regular volunteers equipped the signal box with an operational 26 lever frame connected to traditional semaphore signals and points. When the railway was extended to Carrog in 1996 volunteers found the signal box had been demolished. They found a lever frame on the Chester-Shrewsbury line, and reassembled it at Carrog. Railway spokesman George Jones said: “From being a terminus where only one train was allowed west from the signalbox at Glyndyfrdwy, the Railway can now handle two or more trains within the station limits at Carrog.”

ROCK AND ROLL TONIC: Mike Peters and the Alarm at last year’s The Gathering in Llandudno.
Linking up for a Valentine tour
Fans gather for Mike!
By JUSTINE BAILEY
T
HE perfect Rock and Roll tonic for the traditional January blues will be provided at Venue Cymru at the end of the month when Dyserth rock legend Mike Peters hosts his annual “Gathering”.
The Gathering, which will take place on January 30 and 31, has continued to grow in strength with every passing year and is a
Alarm frontman entertains crowds at this year’s rock and roll concert
testament to the energy and endurance of Alarm founding member Mike, and the hands-on personal approach of every member of his team, not to mention the heart and soul that arrives with every single Alarm fan, many of whom travel from all four corners of the globe. Every year over 1,200 fans flock to Llandudno to
see Mike perform for two nights (acoustic, electric, Alarm, Solo, Coloursound, DMW, COTR etc.) watch the video documentaries, play five-a-side football and meet the man himself to get their favourite memento signed. Last year, Mike, who grew up in Prestatyn, performed a two and a half hour acoustic set on the Friday
night, presented a premiere of the final Counter Attack suite of songs at 11 o’ clock on the Saturday morning, stood for over two hours chatting with fans and signing autographs in the afternoon and still had enough fire in the tank to lead The Alarm MMVIII on a three-hour electric set that has been hailed as one of the finest sets of
recent times. At 1am Mike could be seen at the aftershow party, jamming on some Clash tunes with his band mate Eddie Macdonald. All of Mike’s gigs attract good crowds, but The Gathering manages to do this while retaining an atmosphere of intimacy and grandeur: the perfect place to see and hear the songs of Mike Peters and The Alarm live! ■ Tickets for The Gathering 17 are available to order now, call 01745 571571 or book online at www.thealarm.com
HAYLEY Westenra and Jonathan Ansell have teamed up together to play a few special selected dates for their Valentines Tour and February 6 at Rhyl Pavilion Theatre is one of them. In December, 2007, it was announced Hayley Westenra was the biggest selling classical artist of the 21st Century. Hayley has had over 4 million album sales with sell-out tours in New Zealand, Japan, America and the UK, while still finding time to work closely with The Royal British Legion and Unicef – for whom she is their youngest ambassador. Her latest album River of Dreams a bestof-so-far was released in October, 2008. Jonathan Ansell, the charismatic young singer with the sensational tenor voice who shot to fame three years ago with pop opera group G4 on the X Factor, has now established himself as a bona fide solo star. Jonathan, who quickly became the stand-out favourite of the fans on the X Factor, achieved amazing success with the classically-trained group G4, who announced their split in early 2007. But surpassing this, he has now achieved a debut solo album, Tenor at the Movies, that topped the classical charts and also hit the top ten of the pop charts.

A year in the life
Twelve unforgettable Lilies top of the table months for Seasiders and looking good
WITHOUT a doubt the year 2008 was the most successful in Prestatyn Town’s proud history with the club not only winning the Cymru Alliance but also reaching its highest level ever of the Welsh Premier League where the Seasiders are very much holding their own.
Here is a look back at 12 unforgettable months: ❑ JANUARY Prestatyn started 2008 on top of the Cymru Alliance League and wins over Llanfairpwll (3-1) and Ruthin Town (6-0) kept them in command. The in-form Ian Griffiths notched five goals in those two victories. ❑ FEBRUARY Double disappointment for the Seasiders as they went down 1-0 at home to chief challengers and bogey side Bala Town and then lost 2-1 at a windswept Mynydd Isa. However, wins over Llandyrnog United (2-0) and Lex XI (5-0) kept Neil Gibson’s side in top spot. ❑ MARCH Town went unbeaten throughout the month, hammering Buckley Town 7-1 and taking the honours 2-0 at Denbigh, while drawing at home against Gap Queens Park 2-2 in a thriller and 0-0 with Mynydd Isa. ❑ APRIL A memorable month for the Bastion boys began in style when a 3-2 win at Llanfairpwll clinched the Cymru Alliance League title. A large group of travelling fans saw the Seasiders come back from a 2-1 deficit to triumph thanks to an Ian Griffiths double. Prestatyn then won 4-2 at Glantraeth – where they received the championship trophy – and 2-0 at Penrhyncoch to wrap up the title by a massive 15 points. ❑ MAY Although accepted into the Welsh Premier, Prestatyn were given a seemingly impossible eight-day deadline to get Bastion Gardens up to the required standard. However, the stirring efforts of a team of volunteers who worked around the clock ensured the club met the necessary criteria. Prestatyn Reserves clinched the Clwyd Premier title for a second successive season by winning their final match at Denbigh 5-0. ❑ JUNE Due largely to high wage expectations, signing new players for the 2008/09 campaign proved hard for Neil Gibson but the return to the club of central defender Bevan Humphreys after a threeyear spell in the South Wales League provided some cheer. ❑ JULY Things shaped up well in pre-season for Town with wins over Corinthian Casuals (2-0) and a
CHAMPIONS: Prestatyn were crowned Cymru Alliance kings in April. Tranmere Rovers XI (3-1) providing cause for optimism. Midfielder Alec Williams joined the Seasiders from neighbours Rhyl. ❑ AUGUST An historic and emotional occasion at Bastion Road saw Prestatyn win their first ever match in the Welsh Premier, beating Airbus UK Broughton 2-1 thanks to an Ian Griffiths double with keeper Jon Dunt also saving a penalty. A home 2-2 split with Technogroup Welshpool and a very honourable 2-0 defeat at TNS followed. ❑ SEPTEMBER High points were a 5-0 home league victory over Caernarfon and a remarkable 3-3 draw at TNS in the League Cup in a game where Prestatyn trailed 3-0. Draws with Newtown (1-1) and NEWI Cefn Druids (3-3) were respectable enough. ❑ OCTOBER Prestatyn scored five goals at home again in a 52 beating of Porthmadog, Jon Fisher-Cooke becoming the first PTFC player to register a WPL hat-trick. The Seasiders also broke the Bala jinx by winning a stormy Welsh Cup tie at Maes Tegid on penalties after a 3-3 extra time outcome. However, Town’s away form was cause for concern as they crashed 6-1 at Llanelli and 3-1 in Haverfordwest. ❑ NOVEMBER Gibson’s charges advanced to the Welsh Cup last 16 with a dramatic 3-2 extra time victory at battling Gresford. Prestatyn maintained their unbeaten home record, beating Neath 1-0 and drawing 1-1 with Gap Connah’s Quay, but lost narrowly at Aberystwyth and Carmarthen. ❑ DECEMBER Despite missing six regulars due to injuries and suspensions, Prestatyn ensured they ended 2008 with an undefeated home record in the WPL after they came from behind twice to hold Bangor City 2-2 at Bastion Road. Town drew at Airbus and played their part in history as their match against local rivals Rhyl at Belle Vue attracted a third highest ever WPL attendance of 2,126. Sadly the game ended in a 7-2 defeat for Prestatyn, but they finished the year in a respectable 13th.

Hat-trick for new boy Dolben AFTER taking the first half to shake off festive season rust Rhyl went on to complete a comfortable victory over their Wirral visitors in the second period. The Dragons fell behind to an early try, but still managed to establish a 10-5 lead by the interval courtesy of a debut try for winger John Dolben and a John Hall touchdown. Some harsh but truthful half-time words from coach Christian Badham focused the collective mind of the Rhyl side who began to impose themselves with the forwards combining effectively to dominate. The North Walians always looked to keep the egg alive and from a series of quick rucks delivered fast ball for centre Gareth van Heerden to ghost over early doors. Dolben went on to complete a memorable hat-trick by racing over twice more, then captain Ben Morris finished off a flowing
ACE: Mark Webster.
Chuffed to get through DENBIGH hero Mark Webster is on the glory path once more in the BDO World Darts Championships at the famous Lakeside. The left-hander began the defence of his 2008 title with a comfortable 3-0 firstround win over Dutchman Willy van der Wiel on Sunday. The Welshman was yesterday (Tuesday) due to face exchampion John Walton, who beat Shaun Greatbatch 30, for a place in the last eight. “I am chuffed to get through,” said the 25-year-old trainee plumber. “The first round is so nerve-wracking and I was restless all night worrying about my first match.” Webster has not been in the best of form this season, but the number two seed is still among the favourites to win a title he lifted last year with a 7-5 final victory over Australian Simon Whitlock.

Port hit back with a converted score, but tries by fly-half Shaks Ngwenya and replacement hooker Mike Hall, who added a conversion, completed the action. Coach Badham was happy with a win despite the absence of 10 regular first team players and cited the strength in depth established this season across the senior squad, but was also critical of his side’s tactical naivety and poor return of one conversion out of eight attempts. ■ Rhyl return to league action on Saturday with the firsts entertaining Machynlleth and the seconds playing league leaders Shotton, kick-offs 2.30pm at The Waen.
Ten counters in the top 100 THE fourth fixture of the Borders Road Running League in Caernarfon on Sunday saw Prestatyn RC step up another gear. The men claimed six finishers in the top 50 and all 10 counters ended up in the leading 100, giving them third place in division one behind hosts Eryri Harriers and Buckley, and they also came third in the veterans’ competition. Gordon Jones led the squad home while Matt Sims, Dean Longley and George Nicholls all recorded their best positions to date. As well as 15 men the club had seven women competing, their team finishing fifth in division one, boosting their chances of avoiding the drop next season.

HOLDEN OUT FOR A HERO By DAVE JONES
WELSH Premier League leaders Rhyl have signed an exciting left-sided attacker to boost their title bid in 2009.
Luke Holden, 20, played for the Lilywhites’ rivals The New Saints in the 2007/08 season, netting six goals in 22 starts before being released in April last year, then having spells at Cammell Laird and Bradford Park Avenue. A former Liverpool youth and Tranmere Rovers trainee, Holden’s transfer to Rhyl was confirmed on Monday. “We’ve been chasing him for a little while and believe he will be a big asset to the club,” said Lilies senior coach Allan Bickerstaff. “He’s got experience of the Welsh Premier playing for TNS and being a left-sided player he will add some balance to the team. “Being only 20, he is also one for the future and can learn from the experienced players we have here.” Bickerstaff revealed two other top quality players are expected to put pen to paper this week. One is thought to be a gifted young midfielder currently operating in the WPL. Check the internet blog Lilywhites Online for latest news. Meanwhile, Rhyl hope to return to action this Saturday in a humdinger top of the table clash at chief rivals and reigning champions Llanelli. The
Lilies sign one for the future
match kicks off at 5.30pm and will be shown live on S4C. Peter Nicholas’s side will be out for revenge after suffering a 5-1 hammering at Belle Vue at the start of the season – Llanelli’s first loss to the Lilies in 11 matches. Rhyl will be without goalkeeper Lee Kendall, who is suspended for three games after being found guilty of crowd incitement at the controversial league tussle at Bangor City last November 11. That means reserve keeper Paul Pritchard will be called upon unless Rhyl sign another custodian this week. “It’s got all the makings of a great game,” said Bickerstaff. “If we can get something there we can open up a gap and we’ll be going there to win, I don’t talk about going for draws. “We were outstanding when we beat them back in August, but Peter (Nicholas) will have them fired up on Saturday. They’ve had some tremendous results since playing us and it’s a game we’re all looking forward to.” Rhyl have endured a frustrating start to 2009 with their New Year’s Day fixture at Prestatyn and Saturday’s home meeting with Caernarfon Town both called off due to frost.
No fear says boss Gibson Prestatyn Town v The New Saints
WELSH PREMIER LEAGUE, FRIDAY 7.30pm
SEVERAL regulars will be missing for Prestatyn when they take on full-timers TNS for the fourth time this season on Friday. Seasiders player manager Neil Gibson is highly doubtful as he struggles to shake off the effects of flu, goalkeeper Jon Dunt is suspended and will be replaced by reserves custodian Ben Rowley, longterm injury victims Ross Hannen and Steve Hoult are improving but will not be ready in time and striker Jon Fisher-Cooke is out for another two to three weeks with a groin pull. “It will be good to get back playing after having our last two games called off,” said Gibson. “After the disappointment of the Rhyl game (7-2 defeat) the players can’t wait to get back and make amends.” Town have given TNS three tough tests this season, unluckily losing 2-0 in the league at Park Hall where they also came back from 3-0 down to earn a remarkable 33 draw in the League Cup. They also led the Saints 3-0 at Bastion Road in the League Cup return only to end up 4-3 losers. Prestatyn, of course, have a proud unbeaten home record in the league to defend and will be keen to pick up points sooner rather than later as the Rhyl loss sent them tumbling to 13th in the WPL.
