Twelve years for killing

Th e man accused of kill-ing a mom of three outside a Surrey hockey arena in late 2013 pleaded guilty Friday and has been sentenced to 12 years prison.

Yosef Jomo Gopaul, 27, was initially charged with second-degree murder in connection with Julie Pas-kall’s death, but on Friday morning (May 22), entered a guilty plea in Surrey Pro-vincial Court to the lesser charge of manslaughter.

He was sentenced fol-lowing an emotional morn-ing in court where details of Paskall’s death were re-viewed and victim impact statements read.

Paskall, 53, was attacked Dec. 29 while picking up

her son from hockey out-side Newton Arena near 71 Avenue and 136B Street. She suff ered a blow to the head with a rock in what police at the time called a robbery gone wrong. She died two days later. Th e court heard she had a pre-existing heart condition and suff ered a heart attack.

Gopaul was arrested fi ve months aft er the attack.

A preliminary hearing was held in January to de-termine if there was enough evidence to warrant a trial. A judge determined there was and Gopaul was or-dered to stand trial in B.C. Supreme Court.

On Friday, Gopaul also

Housing market to price out lawyers, doctorsBy Jeff NagelIt’s not just low blue-collar service workers who are being

priced out of the Lower Mainland’s hot real estate market.A new study projects a growing list of high-earning profes-

sionals won’t make enough in the years ahead to support the rapidly rising cost of owning a home in Metro Vancouver.

Th e VanCity Savings report warns of a coming labour cri-sis as more skilled workers needed in the region – particu-larly millennials – are increasingly forced to live further away or abandon the region altogether.

Th e crux of the problem is rising housing costs coupled with lagging pay.

Wages in the region rose by 36 per cent between 2001 and 2014, the report said, while Metro Vancouver home costs climbed 63 per cent over the same period, and soared 211 per cent within Vancouver proper.

VanCity assumed housing costs will continue to climb an average of 4.9 per cent a year in Metro, signifi cantly faster than wage growth of 0.6 to 3.2 per cent.

If that proves accurate between now and 2020, the report says, only family doctors, specialists, lawyers, university pro-fessors, police offi cers, fi refi ghters and certain managers and engineers will be paid enough to qualify for a typical mort-gage in Metro, while more than 90 per cent of in-demand job categories will not.

And by 2025, it found, only senior managers in business, construction and engineering will still make the aff ordability cut – doctors and lawyers would not.

“In 10 years, most individuals may forgo a career opportu-nity in the region and relocate to a diff erent labour market,” the VanCity report says. “If there is an abundance of outward migration, a labour crisis will occur.”

Millennials, many of whom want to own homes, are among those most likely to migrate away, it said.

Among the report’s recommendations are that cities use zoning to require developers to include non-market aff ord-able housing with new projects and that the federal govern-ment provide tax incentives to encourage more rental hous-ing.

Businesses can help, it says, by paying employees a living wage adequate to meet a family’s basic needs and perhaps investing in aff ordable housing for their workers.

Millennials need to look harder at renting instead of own-ing a home, it said, along with choosing smaller homes or possibly alternatives like intergenerational community living or multi-family living through options like housing co-ops.

Market Days are backBy Jennifer LangCloverdale merchants and out-

door vendors are laying out the welcome mat for shoppers this Saturday for the fi rst Market Day of 2015.

As many as 30 vendors are tak-ing part, including food trucks, and local farms selling fresh pro-duce, plus a variety of artisans and small businesses who are joining merchants for sidewalk sales and more from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. on 176 Street.

It’s the fi rst of fi ve market days this summer being organized by an ad-hoc group of local mer-chants on the street.

“We’re just trying to give back to the community,” says coor-dinator Helena Lloyd of Mates Uniforms. “People say, ‘I love Cloverdale. I live in Cloverdale.’ Everyone says it – that’s because they’re proud of what they are.’”

Th ere’s a new way to show that pride – the businesses behind the market days venture are selling $20 Cloverdale T-shirts available at participating businesses. It’s a way help bring in extra revenue to help promote market days.

With two of Cloverdale’s larg-est community events – the sum-mer blueberry festival and the Halloween Costume Parade in October – put on hold this year, it’s never been more important to fi nd ways to bring new shoppers to the historic town centre, Lloyd says.

“Th ere was going to be noth-

ing happening down here until Christmas,” she says. “People do want to come down here and of course we want people to come and support Cloverdale.”

In addition to being the fi rst market day of 2015, the May 30 event is also the fi ft h market day since its inception. Launched in the fall of 2013, the market days give people a reason to check out the range of shopping and ser-vices the historic town centre has to off er.

“Th is has grown a lot since last year. Th ere’s still a lot more it could grow,” Lloyd says, adding, “Everybody loves the commu-nity feel and hometown attitude [of Cloverdale]. When they come

down, they love it.”Two child-friendly attractions

are on the bill this time only: Kor-ki the Clown and electric blue-haired Mrs. Picasso the face paint-er will set up shop in Hawthorne Square from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.

Promoting the market is key, as is covering costs.

Fortunately, several sponsors stepped forward earlier this year to help support Market Days: the Bank of Montreal, which donated $2,500, the Cloverdale District Chamber of Commerce ($1,250), ACE Hardware ($250) and the Cloverdale BIA ($2,500).

Look for Market Days planned for June, July, August and October.

pleaded guilty to a robbery charge in connection with a separate attack of another woman just weeks before Paskall’s death.

Crown and defence lawyers made a joint recom-mendation that Gopaul be sentenced to 12 years jail.

Gopaul was given credit for the 18 months he’s al-ready spent in custody, leaving ten-and-a-half years of his sentence remaining.

Th e family of Julie Paskall has asked for privacy, issuing a statement Friday.

“Nothing will ever bring back a wife, mother, daughter, sister and friend. Julie is gone forever,” it says, adding the family wished to thank Surrey RCMP and members of IHIT for countless hours resulting in charges and conviction of Gopaul.

“As hard as it is, we now must go on with our lives without our beloved Julie.”

One of the side eff ects of having fi xed election dates in Canada, a move pioneered by the BC Liberals when

they were fi rst elected in 2001, is that cam-paigns have become much, much longer.

In fact, having a short campaign period is now considered a disaster by most political handlers. One of the criticisms made of the Alberta Progressive Conservatives’ recent campaign (aft er the fact, of course), is that they only had a 28-day period to campaign in.

Premier Jim Prentice in fact broke Alber-ta’s fi xed election date law and called an elec-tion a year early. Th at didn’t go so well – his party placed third aft er being in power for 44 years.

Th e federal election campaign has actually been underway for some time – certainly since the beginning of the year. While Par-liament is still sitting and passing laws, MPs and candidates of all stripes are hard at work getting ready for the October election.

Under redistribution, Surrey now has fi ve ridings, while Delta has one. Candidates in the new Cloverdale-Langley City riding are mostly in place and several have already set up campaign offi ces. Th ey are taking time off from their jobs to campaign, and that’s what they are spending much of their time doing.

Because of the long campaign period, vot-ers need to treat almost everything said or

done by political parties, and particularly by their leaders, with a great deal of skepticism.

Th ey need to follow the advice of lead singer Sting of Th e Police in the song Every Breath You Take:

“Every vow you breakEvery smile you fakeEvery claim you stakeI’ll be watching you.”NDP leader Th omas Mulcair

was in Surrey for a rally. Th is clearly was an election-related visit. Two of the current Surrey ridings are held by NDP MPs, and the NDP are doing well in re-cent polls. Th e party has a decent shot at at least one, possibly two other Surrey seats.

Th e surprising win by the NDP in Alberta is causing more people across Canada to look at the federal party a little more closely. Some are, for the fi rst time, actually consid-ering it as a government in waiting.

Prime Minister Stephen Harper has also made a number of visits to the Lower Main-land in recent weeks – with at least two of them to Surrey. While they haven’t been elec-tion rallies, his visits are directly connected to the campaign. In particular, the time he spent with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi in Surrey was invaluable.

Delta-Richmond East MP Kerry-Lynne

Findlay was in Surrey last week to announce a $3.5 million grant to Wrap, Surrey School District’s anti-gang program. She also con-fi rmed the 100 new RCMP offi cers Surrey has requested will be coming – though she did not give a date.

Some of her remarks in making the an-nouncement were aimed at other parties – no surer proof these announcements are part

of the larger campaign.Liberal leader Justin Trudeau

will almost certainly be in the area several times in the coming months as well, as will Green Party leader Elizabeth May. Surrey is a key battleground, with at least three of the seats

likely to be hard-fought.Th e South Surrey-White Rock race, with

former Surrey mayor Dianne Watts the Con-servative candidate, is more likely to be a coronation. Cloverdale-Langley City will be closer, but the seat is the Conservatives’ to lose.

Findlay is almost certain to retain her Del-ta seat, as it too is a strong Conservative seat.

Voters may not be too engaged in federal politics right now, but the parties most cer-tainly are.

By Jeff NagelTransLink declared all tran-

sit service free on Friday aft er a small fi re shut down SkyTrain service on the Expo Line for 13 hours, causing major delays on the morning commute.

An errant spark from a crew using grinders to maintain the track landed in a bird’s nest that caught fi re around 11 p.m. and then burned about a metre of critical SkyTrain communica-tions cable.

Service was halted between Joyce Station and Waterfront un-til nearly noon Friday.

Track grinding is routine to keep the track in good condition and SkyTrain noise levels down.

“It’s a freak incident,” Trans-Link interim CEO Doug Allen said. “But obviously we’re having a look at the nesting through the system and we’re looking at re-straining sparks from grinders.”

Bird netting is used in strategic areas to keep birds from nesting near the tracks, but it wasn’t in place on this section as it hadn’t been identifi ed as a problem area.

TransLink apologized to pas-sengers for the inconvenience and said free transit on Friday was a gesture of goodwill.

“Th eir time is priceless, at least we can respond with free service for the day in question,” Allen said.

TransLink is also consider-

ing how to compensate people with monthly passes, as well as those who paid for tickets Friday – they’re advised to hang onto them.

Allen defended the response of TransLink staff to this shutdown as “very, very good” and many passengers said TransLink com-munications was much better than during two lengthy shut-downs last summer.

Extra buses shuttled passen-gers around the closed section of line and they were also urged to take buses west on major Van-couver arteries to the Canada Line.

With summer fast approaching, it’s time to remind pet guardians across B.C. about the serious consequences for pets left inside cars on hot days. Every year, the SPCA receives hundreds of complaints about dogs left in hot cars because many people still don’t grasp the danger of this situation. Even if you park in the shade and it seems cool outside when you leave, the sun can change direction and heat up a car’s interior in no time.

Many people assume they will be just a few minutes at a bank or convenience store, only to be delayed and return too late to save their pet. With an outside temperature of just 26 degrees Celsius, the temperature inside a parked car at this time of year — even one that’s in the shade with the windows cracked — can climb to above 37 degrees Celsius in just 10 minutes and 43 degrees Celsius in 20 minutes. A dog’s normal temperature is 38 degrees Celsius. At 41 degrees Celsius, your dog begins to suff er irreparable brain damage or death.

If you see a dog languishing in a hot car, please call the SPCA, animal control or local police in your area. Before the authorities arrive, members of the public can help prevent a tragedy by attempting to fi nd the animal’s guardian. If the car is in a mall or grocery store parking lot, for example, ask to have the owner paged over the building’s PA system. Return to the car to monitor the dog’s condition.

In addition to not leaving pets in the car at this time of year, guardians should use caution when exercising

their pets under the sweltering summer sun. A lot of dogs will run and play to the point of exhaustion, and it’s the guardian’s

responsibility to make sure that doesn’t happen.

Signs of heatstroke in pets:• Exaggerated panting (or

the sudden stopping of panting);

• Rapid or erratic pulse;

• Salivation;

• Weakness and muscle tremors;

• Lack of coordination;

• Convulsions or vomiting; and Collapse.

If your dog shows symptoms of heatstroke, you should:• Immediately move the

animal to a cool, shady place;

• Wet the dog with cool water (do not apply ice as it constricts blood fl ow);

• Fan vigorously to promote evaporation;

• Allow the dog to drink some cool water;

• Take the dog to a veterinarian.

Innovation, crime top fi rst formal address by mayor

By Kevin DiakiwIn her inaugural State of the

City address, Surrey Mayor Linda Hepner outlined a vi-sion of hope and promise to a crowd at the Sheraton Vancou-ver Guildford Hotel.

Hepner told the crowd she looked forward to getting caught up and explained her plans for the city over the next year.

Th e theme of her speech was largely centered around innovation, pulling from the burgeoning success of Innova-tion Boulevard, a partnership between the City of Surrey, Simon Fraser University and Fraser Health to create a high-tech health area between the three entities in North Surrey. It’s already taking off .

Hepner said she wants to build upon that success by us-ing several similar models else-where in the city.

Plugging into the city’s rich network of academics, clini-cians and businesses can jump-start and accelerate commerce in Surrey, she said, adding the Innovation Boulevard concept can be used to create hubs of clean tech, agriculture and cy-ber security.

Clean tech (environmentally friendly technology) is one of Canada’s fastest-growing sec-tors, she said, adding Surrey is well-positioned to lead glob-ally.

She said the city recently recruited the Foresight Clean-tech Innovation Centre to lo-cate in Newton, Last month, the federal government an-nounced $2 million in federal funding for Foresight for its clean technology development.

She noted 10 per cent of B.C.’s clean tech companies are already located in Surrey.

But innovation doesn’t stop

there, Hepner said.California’s ongoing drought

situation is an indicator cli-mate change has profound ef-fects on food security.

She noted that one-third of Surrey’s land base is agricul-tural and said the city can be part of the solution.

In partnership with the B.C. Agriculture Centre for Excel-lence, Kwantlen Polytechnic University, SFU and BCIT, Surrey will become a living lab for agricultural innovation, Hepner said.

Th ere are plans to create a virtual incubator farm, which would serve as a portal for as-piring farmers to fi nd services and sources of information gathering.

Most importantly, she said, it will identify land upon which they can farm.

Innovation will also be part of a cyber security initiative

Surrey is undertaking, she said.Breakdowns in cyber securi-

ty are costing governments and businesses fortunes. Surrey will be working with Israel’s Ben Gurion University as well as top companies, locally and abroad, to better understand the issue and fi nd solutions.

Aft er highlighting plans for a bright future, Hepner also addressed what she called the “elephant in the room” – crime.

She said statistics show Sur-rey is a safe city, but she ac-knowledged that people don’t feel safe.

During last year’s election campaign, Hepner prom-ised 147 more offi cers on the ground. She says they’ve been ordered and will arrive within the next year.

Surrey will also be develop-ing a neighbourhood policing

Linda Hepner says the 147 additional police offi cers will arrive within the year

model, working closely with communities, and will hire a director of public safety strategies.

Hepner also listed some of the large con-struction projects under way, including Guild-ford pool, Grandview pool, East Clayton rec-reation centre, an ex-pansion of the Surrey Museum and a soccer centre for excellence.

She also said the city is looking for an inves-

tor who will build a multi-purpose sport and entertainment complex in South Westminster (northwest Surrey).

She also plans to cre-ate a cultural corridor from Newton to South Surrey along King George Boulevard.

It’s been 168 days since Hepner was elect-ed mayor and each day has been diff erent, she said. Not every day was “absolutely perfect in every way,” and each had its lessons.

“As your mayor, I

know how far we have come and how much further we can go,” she said. “We have the imagination and drive to see what we have going for us, and then work to shape our city into something remark-able.”

Ice applaudedMike Bola, president

of the Cloverdale Com-munity Association, said he was happy to hear the mayor confi rm news Cloverdale will get more ice rinks.

Th e association has been pushing for four rinks to replace the cur-rent Cloverdale Ice Are-na, built in the 1970s, a single sheet of ice meant to be twinned with a second sheet that never came to fruition.

He’s heard the new plan is to build two re-placement rinks fi rst that would be twinned at a later date.

“It’s great news. It’s a start,” he said, aft er lis-tening to the mayor’s speech in person.

Th e association has also been pushing for a new indoor pool for Cloverdale for decades, but it’s not in the cards

for now, he said. Th e association conducted a survey of residents last year and found 90 per cent of respondents wanted a pool and a rink as top new ameni-ties in Cloverdale.

Th e association is also encouraged by news the City of Surrey is em-barking on an “envi-sioning process” for the city-owned Cloverdale Fairgrounds, home to the Cloverdale Rodeo and Exhibition and Fra-ser Downs Racetrack and Casino, along with land that’s ripe for re-development.

Bola said the asso-ciation would also like the soccer centre for excellence to be located in Cloverdale. Th e fair-grounds’ location at the crossroads of Highways 15 and 10, plus its easy border connections to the U.S. make it an easy fi t for visiting soccer teams, he said.

With that in mind, the association has also asked the City of Surrey to prioritize a walking/running track around a soccer fi eld if it’s built here.

“We’ve had a lot of push from seniors,” he said.

Attendance soarsAttendance numbers at the

Cloverdale Fairgrounds were as high as they’ve been in years, as about 100,000 people came through the turnstiles over the May long weekend to take in the 127th Cloverdale Rodeo and Country Fair.

Th e fair showcased world-class skateboarders, pig racing, lum-

berjack shows and the midway rides, to name just a few attrac-tions.

Organizers say more than 85,000 packed the fair and 23,000 attended the rodeo – one of the best turnouts in decades.

Even with the added seating, the rodeo saw two back-to-back sellouts for Saturday and Sunday performances.

Th e 69th annual rodeo show-

cased the world’s stop cowboys and cowgirls competing for $325,000 in prize money.

Th e Cloverdale Rodeo and Ex-hibition Association is the non-profi t organization that manages the world famous Cloverdale Ro-deo and Country Fair, with help from hundreds of volunteers.

Th e event, now in its fourth year at the Cloverdale Rodeo and Country Fair, takes place at the Cloverdale Curling Rink, featuring a fl awless concrete fl oor that makes it ideal for fl atland freestyle skate-boarding.

Th e fi nal day of the

round-up contest saw every competitor step-ping up their game, big time, with White Rock’s Andy Anderson taking fi rst place in the ama-teur division, and Sur-rey’s Dillanger Kane and Chadd Sinclair round-ing out fi ft h and 10th place.

Last year’s fi rst place amateur winner, 12-year-old Isamu Ya-mamoto from Japan, took fourth place this

year, competing for the fi rst time in the pro di-vision.

But ultimately, it was Geunter Mokulys of Berlin, Germany, who cleaned up the compe-tition, taking home the pro division fi rst place win.

It’s Not Just Your NervesBy Christine Cheng, R.Ph.

How many times have you heard someone say, “it’s just his/her nerves”? Yes, physiologically the sensation of a racing heart, sweaty palms, shortness of breath, dry mouth, nausea, troubles sleeping , muscle tension and/or dizziness is mitigated by the nerves. But to anyone who has experienced these types of symptoms, just writing it off as “just nerves” does not do anything to take away the anxiety or panic that one is feeling.

There are several different types of anxiety disorders which can be diagnosed by your doctor…and it is never a bad idea to get checked out if there could be an underlying cause to the symptom you are experiencing. For example, if you have a personal or family history of heart issues, then please do not assume your heart palpitations are due only to anxiety! However, people who feel any combination of the symptoms above do not necessarily need a diagnosis to get some relief. Once it has been determined that there is no organic cause of the symptom, then the fi rst things to try are the non-drug approaches.

Minimizing the use of caffeine and other stimulants and avoiding the use of alcohol are easy fi rst steps. Exercise can be benefi cial , especially if is the aerobic kind that gets your heart rate up a bit. If your anxiety is disturbing your sleep, then make sure

you are practicing good sleep hygiene. Reducing stress is an important fi rst step and can be as simple as implementing good time management. Practicing mindfulness or meditation can be very useful in managing anxiety.

Sometimes, a combination of non-drug measures and supplementation will produce the desired effect. For those whose anxiety causes them to lie in bed and not sleep because they just cannot seem to “turn off their minds”, the homeopathic remedy, RESCUE SLEEP seems to work very well. Being homeopathic, this will not interfere with any other medication. A herbal preparation of passionfl ower by Pascoe called PASCOFLAIR ® has been shown to have a similar benefi t. Passionfl ower has actually been proven to have similar effect as benzodiazepines, a class of prescription medications frequently prescribed for anxiety. This herb works by enhancing GABA, the anti-anxiety neurotransmitter (or signal) in the brain. This preparation has been found to work in as quickly as 30minutes and can be effective for many types of anxiety in addition to its benefi t as a sleep aid. Pascofl air ® can be used in conjunction with PASCONAL® if you fi nd that a lack of focus contributes to

your feeling of anxiety.For general relaxation, magnesium

supplementation can be considered because of magnesium’s role in regulating muscle function; specifi cally, it helps with muscle relaxation. To help release muscle tension, make sure you pay attention to what type of magnesium you take as its

bioavailability (or ability to be absorbed and used in the body) is important. We suggest looking for MAGNESIUM GLYCINATE as this form is well-absorbed and has worked well for our patients to help with muscle relaxation.

For general anxiety, consider the time-honoured homeopathic preparation, RESCUE

REMEDY. This works in humans of all ages as well as animals. Another natural preparation that is effective for general anxiety is ANZ-EASE®. Anz-Ease® contains a special species of Echinacea called Echinacea Angustifolia, which is the only species that has any action on the nervous system. Studies in Europe have revealed that this preparation has effects on cannabinoid receptors in the brain, which may be responsible for its anti-anxiety effects.

For those who are going through a stressful period and whose anxiety may

be linked to high cortisol levels, then preparations containing adaptogenic herbs may be useful. In particular, a combination of l-theanine and ashwagandha called, “Sleep Tonight” can produce marked effects in helping the body deal with stress as well as reducing anxiety. Although the name implies that it is simply a sleep-aid, we have found many patients fi nd it useful during the day. However, since it may induce drowsiness in some, it is prudent to use this at night until you are familiar with its effects in your body. (This latter statement applies to any and all herbs that may cause one to be overly relaxed.)

Anxiety can be precipitated or elicited by many different situations or stimuli. It is important to identify these stimuli where possible and deal with them fi rst. If you are thinking of trying a supplement to help you manage your anxiety, always consult with a healthcare practitioner fi rst to ensure what you choose is safe for you to use.

History and mystery at your fi ngertips

Llandudno, North Wales, is one of the few parts

of Britain that truly retains an uncon-trived Victorian, or Edwardian, ambi-ance and identity. For some reason the town always reminds me of a friendly old duff er who fl atly, unapologetically, refuses to be dragged into the 21st century, and is proud of it.

Picture a spectacular sweep of sandy beaches

stretching as far as the eye can see between ancient limestone headlands known as the Little Orme and the Great Orme.

Dignifi ed white columned residential hotels, rooming houses, bed and breakfasts, and genteel hotels stand guard around an el-egantly curved natural bay fl anked by a prom-enade, and a dramatic seascape.

The scene is remi-niscent of Georgette Heyer’s Regency romances, Jane Austen fashions, Mr. Darcy

dandys, and genteel visitors ‘taking the air’.

Th e double doors of my well-appointed St. George’s Hotel room open onto a veranda extending around the

venerable old build-ing which was built in 1854. Clouds hover over the Little Orme to the east urging me to face the bracing sea breeze to explore the

distant Llandudno Pier which recently sold for £4.5 million. Well-endowed with rides, co-lourful ‘carny’ fast-food,

Panthers shine at track meet

Fresh off their im-pressive showing at the 38th annual Clover-dale Bed Races, Lord Tweedsmuir Secondary School’s track team headed to the Fraser Valley Track and Field Championships, win-ning the Grade 8 boys aggregate title and an individual senior boys title for thrower Ben Ingvaldson.

Athletic director Mike Mitro said more than 70 plus athletes from LTS qualifi ed for the meet, who says coaches Derrick Fournier and Sheryl Murrell are ecstatic with the team’s perfor-mance, and expect big things for the provincial championships June 4-6 in Langley.

Ingvaldson won a gold medal in discus with a throw of 39.91m. H also won gold in hammer throw and a silver in shotput.

Kenzos Los earned a silver in the men’s 200m sprint in 22.73 seconds.

Stephanie Mernagh of Lord Tweedsmuir also won a bronze med-al with a third-place fi nish in the women’s 400m race in 1:02.85.

LTS also had four relay teams win medals. In the women’s com-petition, the Panthers won silver medals in the 4x400m event and the 4x100m race. In the men’s 4x100m race, the Panthers placed fi rst and third.

2015 AMATEURPHOTOGRAPHER OF THE YEAR CONTESTVOTED #1 PROMOTED EVENT IN NORTH AMERICA!


fortune teller stalls, and souvenir shops, the famous Llandudno landmark built in 1877 is anchored by a pinball-style ‘Family Amusement’ arcade at one end and a “Deck Arcade” under a Brighton Pier-style dome jutting out into the sea.

Apart from the

two arcades, the fun stuff is ‘Closed for the Season’. Waves batter the base of the Grand Hotel on the north side of the pier which, until a face appears at a second fl oor window, I assume is closed permanently. It’s a perfect Hitch-cock set. Th e town will be packed at the height of the summer, but exploring in the

‘off season’ has, for a writer, its own unique charm. It’s only when contemplating the giant teacup rides that I recall Llandudno’s connection to Alice in Wonderland.

Alice Liddell, a child who regularly holi-dayed with her family over 150 years ago, is reputed to have been the inspiration for Lewis Carroll’s ‘Alice’.

As a result, the prom-enade has featured in many a Mad Hatter-themed tea party and other related events.

Jogging back to the warmth of the four-star St. George, I detour off the beach through the main streets. I am sorry time doesn’t allow for exploring the eclectic assortment of village shops. A particularly

staid looking hotel advocated Christmas turkey dinners in November to beat the festive rush. A plastic Christmas tree swayed precariously in the windy doorway. Marks for initiative, I thought.

Dinner, on the other hand, at Th e Sea Horse Restaurant, 7 Church Walks, was a complete contrast. Tucked into a refur-bished ‘Victorian’ with stone walls, oak pews and priests’ chairs for casual dining, or more formal red leather fur-niture upstairs, I fi nd an upbeat atmosphere catering to a decidedly trendier clientele.

Owned by Don and Gill Hadwin, the per-sonable Manchester pair clearly enjoy fi ne food and friendship. Don, a Master Chef, and Gill, a drama and English major, were school friends who drift ed apart, but reconnected on-line in 2002 through Friends Re-United.

Th ey’re also avid fi sherfolk who pride themselves on serving their own ‘fresh catch’ complemented with locally-grown and raised products for their varied menu. Grilled sea bass with garlic butter and prawns paired with a

crisp white wine were perfect choices with which to end my day.

Exploring the Great Orme, famous for an old copper mine, a 13th century church (where even your pooch is welcome to attend services), and a visit to the nearby ancient walled castle town of Conwy are on the agenda for tomor-row.

Wales is steeped in mysteries, histories, and surprises. No wonder writers, poets, musi-cians, and independent spirits are drawn to it and thrive here.
