I have a great idea.
It will boost the economy, give shoppers more safety and amuse me greatly.
We should turn Rhyl High Street into a zoo.
“What are you talking about Martin?”
Well, hear me out. Or carry on reading, or whatever the phrase may be.
Bars surrounding the area from the clock tower to Vale Road bridge would be my first move, creating a large rectangular ‘attraction’.
It’s already a better idea than the Children’s Village.
And what will we fill it with?
As I look out of my window I see two dogs and a man who looks a bit like a rhino. Not because he’s a little on the corpulent side, I wouldn’t be so insulting.
No, it’s the grey T-shirt, that prominent gait, and the ice cream he’s holding could be turned upside down and used as a horn.
On lunch I spotted more dogs, dozens of seagulls and some pigeons. Last week I even saw a cat on Wellington Road. I’m sure we could catch it.
My colleague David Rutland has just spoken to a woman who discovered a penguin on Prestatyn beach. There may be more, we may be able to create a water feature near Piazza.
Honestly, I feel like Dr Dolittle when I walk around the town centre, only the creatures I come across are either violent, barking or swooping on shoppers and shopworkers.
It’s starting to tick me off, as you can probably tell.
I still haven’t heard from the dog warden by the way. It’s been four weeks.
If he or she were ever to turn up in the area with one of those large nets they’d have a field day.

Very amusing Mr Williams! At least it might bring the tourists in.
