%3Ca%20href="/radio/podcasts/newales/">Podcast - NE Wales Update
This week Good Evening Wales is at court as two serving police officers from Prestatyn are sentenced for cruelty to their pet dogs; Denbighshire Council is criticised for serious failings in a report by the Auditor General for Wales and Richard Evans throws open the phone lines to discuss the increased use of tasers by our police offficers, following a trial in North Wales. Roy Noble talks to an award winning private eye from Mold; we hear how Holywell could become a new centre for walkers and Sian Pari Huws discovers how a rabbit from Flintshire has been given her own purpose built wheelchair.

Wrexham's %3Ca%20href="/wales/northeast/sites/wrexham_town/pages/eaglesmeadow.shtml">Eagles Meadow development has been open nearly a month now and continues to generate lots of conflicting %3Ca%20href="/wales/northeast/sites/wrexham_town/pages/eaglesmeadow.shtml">views. Many people have expressed concern about the number of empty shops in the town centre, with lots of businesses relocating to Eagles Meadow, and there's no denying the number of empty premises continues to grow. If Woolworths, as, sadly, looks quite likely, also closes down that will be another big shop left empty. What's to become of the town centre?

Yesterday contributor %3Ca%20href="/wales/northeast/sites/wrexham_town/pages/eaglesmeadow.shtml">S from Wrexham commented that "Pubs are closing in the villages around Wrexham with people only visiting their local at the weekend". Today this story, %3Ca%20href="https://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/business/7742539.stm">'Villages suffer as pubs disappear', featuring a pub in Suffolk, seems to confirm that this is happening across the country. Is your local pub surviving and what effect do you think its demise would have on village life?

With all the economic doom and gloom around at the minute, there has been a bit of a run on cute animal stories.

%3Ca%20href="/radio/podcasts/newales/">Podcast - NE Wales Update
This week, there's bad news on the jobs front as Corus and First Milk announce redundancies, Radio Wales commemorates the 90th anniversary of the signing of the Armistice through letters written home from The Front from soldiers, including Private Thomas Lloyd from Wrexham, and a mother tells of the horrifying moment when her daughter was hit in the face by a firwork. Pensioners give a bunch of youngsters a run for their money on the Nintendo Wii and Matthew Richards reports on how a dog - banned from her local pub for chewing up beer mats - has won a reprieve..

This week, reporter Tom Singleton gets a tour around the new Eagles Meadow shopping centre in Wrexham; the funeral for a family of six, killed in a motorway crash, is held in Llandudno and Barack Obama fever reaches the Richard Evans programme. Good Morning Wales gets reaction following the resignation of Denbighshire County Council's Chief Executive, Ian Miller; a former landgirl from Rhyl tells Rob Thomas about the book she's written detailing her experiences and Roy Noble gets to sample the UK's top sausage - which is made in Flintshire.

The programme uses graphics and computer images to show just how Telford's men built the 116ft (35m) tall bridge and its 18 piers over 10 years.

Next week's episode features another local landmark, the 9th Century %3Ca%20href="/wales/northeast/sites/denbighshire/pages/pillar.shtml">Pillar of Eliseg, and how night photography is being used to recover any fragments of the eroded inscription on the monument.

Have you seen the growing list of local employers making redundancies? We've been %3Ca%20href="https://delicious.com/bbcnortheastwales/jobs">bookmarking [%3Ca%20href="https://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/help/6915817.stm">what's this?] stories of job losses affecting NE Wales this year - and it doesn't look good.

But this isn't the worst of it because these stories don't show us behind the headlines and statistics. They don't show the families affected and the implications the credit crunch is having on all parts of local life.

We're taking a look at the %3Ca%20href="/wales/northeast/sites/towns/crunch.shtml">credit crunch close to home and how it's affecting us all. Let us know if there is something you think we should be featuring.
