You proably have all seen in the 'Dawlish News' on the back page ..Somerfield ends next year. This will please many I guess who have disliked the shop so much ..the paper mentions it being possibly an Electrical store?. I did notice that the paper says it is the only Supermarket here, there is 'Cost Cutters' with larger floor space than Somerfield and they are open until 10pm everyday. I don't ...

Sir/Madam I am wondering if you have any archive record of any e.mail you may have recieved from an American seeking any information about a dancer from Dawlish, which would have been sent approximately 4-5 years ago and was displayed on the Dawlish Noticeboard. I mistakenly deleted it. If you yourself do not have the message, perhaps readers of your noticeboard may still have a copy. If so I ...

My instincts tell me, that is a lot. Dawlish is really nice, but come on. The developer is taking all the profit upside off the table, and more besides. People buying must have balls of granite.

To Jambar. (I'm from the guest book.) In my opinion you are a damn lucky fellow if you have the opportunity to re-locate to Dawlish/South Devon.My advice to you is just do it! I live in a crap southern town and my wife and I would love to move to Dawlish but finances and work prevent this at the moment. We console ourselves by holidaying in Dawlish twice a year and hoping that when our ...

The aim of the project is to save people money and at the same time have a positive impact on the environment. Workshops will be set up for people to attend and get training in how to reduce water consumption, energy use, waste ...

Is there anyone out there who may know me?. I used to live in Dawlish and attend The Beacon Hill School - Teignmouth, around the early 60's. Unfortunatley my mother (Yvonne Rockett) died in May 16, 1963 and is buried at Dawlish cemetry. I now live in Sydney - Australia however intend to come over next year to retrace my early steps. email: rockettjulian@hotmail.com

Thanks JC,he won't remember me but his brother kevin might,this was way back in 1976. Ian might remember sneaking into the large deserted house just down the road. God, what was that called? did they go into the family business? Mark

The PlayStation Portable has officially enjoyed the biggest launch weekend of any console in the UK, with around 185,000 units of the system being sold in its first three days at retail. The figure - which comes from UK market analysts Chart-Track - is more than double the sales of the previous record holder, the Nintendo DS, which sold around 87,000 units in its first weekend back in March. ...

An official figure of 252.95 mph was recorded as the two-way average in the car’s most recent high-speed test run. The figures see the Veyron smash the recent 241mph claimed by Koenigsegg with its CCR and the McLaren F1’s long standing 240.1mph record set in 1998. It’s not only the top speed that’s sensational but also the Bugatti’s acceleration. The four turbo, four-wheel-drive supercar sprints ...

How come every mother and baby picture from the Madonna and Christ-child onwards shows a serenely happy mother cradling a perfectly contented baby in her arms? For most mothers reality is quite different: driven to distraction and despair by a baby that cries long and loud for no discernible reason. So why do babies cry, and what can you do when your baby is howling inconsolably? Firstly, take ...

Dawlish & Teignmouth suffered the disappointment of missing out on promotion for the second season running when they lost by four wickets to Clyst St George. James Burton's side had to win - and hope Plymouth Civil Service slipped up at home to Stoke Gabriel - to clinch the second promotion spot behind runaway champions Feniton. Civil won anyway - they trounced Stoke in double-quick time by six ...

Oddicombe at high tide was the idyllic setting for the annual Devon County Open Water Championships. Dawlish Swimming Club, winners of the team trophy for four consecutive years, found the going tougher this time. Other clubs, keen to benefit from what will be a new Olympic event at London 2012, challenged in every category. Dawlish swimmers took three of the 12 medals contested, and Lauren ...

Can any one tell me what has happened to the Red Rock Cafe ?

I've been holidaying in Dawlish for 41 years and love it. I now bring my children on holiday who love it just as much as I. I have always longed to move to Dawlish and the time may be now. However, I can't seem to find much information on rented accommodation for a family of 5. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

It is well done, and a shame that nobody uses it.

The discovery was announced today by planetary scientist Dr. Mike Brown of the California Institute of Technology in Pasadena, Calif., whose research is partly funded by NASA.

High summer has arrived at Dawlish Warren National Nature Reserve and, despite the recent dry weather, there is a wealth of stunning countryside flora to be seen. Many residents and visitors alike agree that a walk along the dunes of this spectacular reserve takes some beating when it comes to a real live show of colour. Teignbridge senior warden Andrea Buckley explained: "Spring brings many of ...

A teenage girl has had to abandon her solo sail across the Channel in a 13ft dinghy. Megan Baker, 17, from Dawlish, Devon, set off from the river Exe estuary, but had to turn back after six hours because she was making insufficient headway in calm conditions. The youngster, who has dreams of competing in the 2012 Olympics, now hopes to take on her 103 mile voyage to Cherbourg in her Laser craft ...

I'd say it was Lee Cliff Park, Dawlish Warren. The place I spent my first days of life. (Up to age 9 1/2)

HI My name is Carol and I am 28. As a child my family and I always went to Devon for our summer holidays - we done this for abot 10 years. I cannot remember the name of the place but I would be interested in how its changed. As you enterest the holiday park the swimming pool was to the right-hand side, then there was the amusement arcade. It also had a small shop and a chip shop. There was a ...

Thay could have had a Live 8 in Dawlish bandstand, with that guy who held the World Record for playing instruments (unless he's dead), ...and possibly Dawlish Operatic Company singing the Mikado. Has an African person ever been to Dawlish?

There's a huge tree in the grounds of Powderham, that I think is the beautiful perfect tree in the world. If you go down the road alongside the estuary you'll see it. I wanted to photograph it this time, but the light was wrong.

Hi, I am looking for cheap accomodation in early august for holiday for a week. We are a 2.4 family, non smokers, no pets and professional civil servants who are clean and tidy. A caravan/apartment with 2 bedrooms on the sites which have good kids facilities would be great.

The mayor of Dawlish, Cllr Graham Price, has officially opened the town's new community drop-in centre. Cllr Price said he was pleased to see the centre finally opening after a five-year battle to get it for Dawlish. More than 35 people attended the opening of the new centre, which has been named Open Daw. It is in the vestibule of the town's Methodist Church. Margaret Noel, of Dawlish Library, ...

Sorry to see you go, Stumpy. But I have given up too. I really cannot understand why a facility such as this is unused. This town has 11,000 people in it - aren't they interested in the town? Its like a blanket of fog has descended on Dawlish, numbing peoples brains and sucking out all their energy.Look at the Dawlish letters page - nearly always filled with correspondence from Teignmouth. Whats ...
