Lloyd is still at Large -after 10 years

News has reached HoldTheFrontPage of celebrations to mark Llanelli Star editor Robert Lloyd’s anniversary at the paper’s helm.

He has completed ten years as editor and to commemorate the event some of his staff threw a surprise party in his honour.

Surprises included fond memories and tall tales from the past decade, as well as visits from former colleagues and tributes from local personalities and dignitaries.

The night went with a swing, by all accounts, except for one wag who told the crowd: “We worked out that you were appointed on April 1 some 10 years ago, so some of us only turned up to see the conclusion of the joke!”

Lloyd, who pens a regular Lloyd at Large diary column each week, said afterwards: “Thanks to all my team-mates here at Star HQ for a fun night.

“I haven’t opened all of the presents yet – some of them are still ticking.”
