There's been an unresolved problem for at least 30 years. Dawlish is a strange little town and, in some ways, very self destructive.

Perhaps it's a misspelling?

I do wonder how young people will manage to ever leave home.  I can't see them doing it unless they meet someone and/or save a lot of money for a lot of years.  I've noticed where I live that children are staying with their parents longer and longer.  One family has 3 generations living together plus other family members, I wonder how everyone squeezes in. Social rented housing is required and ...
