Fire above Penmaenmawr

Posted by Rob Irvine on February 13, 2008 10:43 PM | 

A bit of late breaking news tonight which I nipped out to see as forty firefighters tackled a massive gorse fire on the hills above Penmaenmawr.
Myself, Mrs Editor, Max the dog and our Canon snappy joined a crowd to watch the burning ring of fire (see image below).
The fire was on Moel Llys mountain between Dwygyfylchi and Penmaenmawr. The police closed off the road through Dwygyfylchi.

The flames were up to 20ft high and we had calls to the office from Bangor and Anglesey as well as Llandudno and Mochdre.
How did it start? That's still unclear - at the time of writing the fire crews are still busy putting it out.

A full story is on page 5 with some much better pictures than mine. We also launch our fabulous £25,000 win a wedding competition. And of course there is the match report from Everton's Uefa victory.
