Happened to be walking along the seawall at Teignmouth this a.m. and was surprised to see so many campervans along the road parallel to the seawall. I've seen quiet a few over the years, but never counted over 20 at one time. Must be some sort of campervan club visit.

Two? Where did this information come from?

Look up "Bluster" on Marine Traffic.com. For a better photo go to their photos page and scroll down for one when she was leaving port in Holland with this in tow.

Chip shop owners who don't  pay  their  bills  should be battered.

It's best not to encourage newspaper letter writers. :-) Especially those writers who have a personal vendetta against someone...

I didn't say it would ever happen, he just made a comment at a rally. That is different than saying he wants to get rid of the British Army but not as dramatic though!

Please can the planners explain Condition 2. C. 3. 'Public arts contribution of £10,000 to provide a public art budget at the application site' There must be better ways to spend £10,000 !

Thanks for your speedy replies Lynne. We visit there early part of July, little Jack Russell Terrier in tow, just before the young ones break up for their main holidays.
