The proprietor of the hearing shop came into The Old Courthouse yesterday to see the exhibition. What was really amusing was his comment, 'I've heard a rumour that you're going to get rid of the roundabout [on the Square]' That's …
Watching me watching you How are things at the Williams Homes' site at Glasdir, post fire ? It's very much business as usual. Work continues. The rubble of the semi-detached house that is now a detached house is cleared away. What we do find …
For now. It was quite an occasion. Finding over 100 people in the same room yesterday for a meal and entertainment enjoying themselves was also something of a treat as, these days, you can never be sure whether events will be cancelled. There was a se…
Yesterday, guess who spoke too soon as regards the cost of fuel in Rhuthun/Ruthin. So much for the pump price stabalising. While unleaded hasn't changed since yesterday, the most expensive diesel has shot up by 45p a gallon, from £8.17 to £8.63. …

Coming soon... the slowing down of traffic on the A542 Horseshoe Pass is being hurried through (excuse the pun). This is yet another stretch of road where Ruthinians will find a hindering, unnecessarily low speed limit. Yet, the motives for the chan…
We don't yet know what caused today's fire at the new housing at Glasdir. This may never become public. There's already much speculation that the cheapness of the housing has somehow contributed to or exacerbated the damage. Damage that re…
Those of us who survive the current Wcrainaidd/Ukrainian situation will look back on February 24th as the start of World War Three. There are fewer and fewer people alive today whose parents fought in World War Two. My father was one such. He enlisted…
