A COLWYN Bay Big Issue vendor is helping to spread some festive cheer among shoppers with Christmas tunes and dancing.

Daniel Lilonad, aged 21, has been selling the magazine for four years and said he finds it important to try to make people smile.

Mr Lilonad, from Romania, said: "I try to make people happy, that's what I do all the time - I try to be friendly."

He added he hopes his singing and dancing will help to draw in more customers as people enter the festive spirit.
