It's June 25th - just the right time to stand in a howling gale and sideways rain on Llandudno's prom dressed as Father Christmas.
Yes, Muggins here had been browbeaten into joining a photocall to start promoting Hope House/Ty Gobaith's Santa Dash fun run in December. There will be TWO runs this year - one in Oswestry and also here along the seafront at Llandudno. Details in tomorrow's Daily Post. I took part in the Oswestry run last year - it was marvellous fun apart from my Santa pants persistently falling down (mercifully I was also wearing a tracksuit).
The day had got off to a bad start as it was. Our excellent front page story about a pregnant woman being left stranded by police when they seized her car was sullied by the fact that we didn't mention where the incident happened. It's all there in the full story on page five (Deganwy, by the way) but not a word on page one in what is known as the "write off".
And even worse was the problems we had at the weekend when we ran the wrong TV listings for S4C - sincere apologies for that and we are trying to sort out some proper listings to go in tomorrow's paper.
Otherwise, another spiffing day in the office.
