Lot of love for our Mark - Â鶹Éç Local
He may have finished third in the Â鶹Éç TV competition, Eurovision Your Country Needs You, to find the UK's entry for the next Eurovision song contest, but there is a lot of love coming in for local boy done good Mark Evans.
And there are plenty of other issues being discussed on our site today, including:-
Migrant workers - Peter: "I have read all the comments and I am sure all of those against eastern European workers are very very badly educated with no degrees or any skills. They want to complain because they are used to complaining instead of working. As long as migrants working here and paying tax you can stay at home."
Flint bypass - Jim: "Flint does need an inland bypass to cope with the hundreds of new houses that are being built on the outskirts of the the town. The costal route is a non-starter as it would landlock the castle and spoil the oustanding riverside view."
Does Wrexham need more supermarkets? - Jane: "If a new supermarket is built in Ruabon I would go there rather than try and get across town to Tesco or Asda in Wrexham, even though they are closer. I would then often go into Ruabon itself. It would be convenient for using the bank and Post Office and I would more than likely pop into the local shops."
