Agree with your point Steve, with insurance companies kicking up such a fuss about properties in flood risk areas, how can any planning authority, builder or house buyer ever consider a property in an area like Dawlish Warren. It should not be allowed and flooding is only one reason. For years the area has been earmarked as holiday accommodation only with huge restrictions on the number of ...

Just read a very interesting story on South West Business at the following link http://www.southwestbusiness.co.uk/homepagetest/action-curb-superstores/article-3432356-detail/article.html Its seems rather two faced that the NFU want to support their members regarding price but wont support any campaigns to stop supermarket construction

Hi - can you get me a new lamp for my LG rear projection TV. They cost a bomb you know, but the Libyian rebels have none either

Unless these sites submit planning consent to operate as a for profit business and not just a civic amenity they will probably be acting illegally if they do try to charge you. Will have to check this one out

Good news for all you supporters of Sainsbury's just heard that due to the good weather they are hoping to open a month early. Shame DCC highways wont have the road finished by then thus preventing them opening as their planning consent requires the roads to be finished prior to opening. Come on Tesco get a move on, we need the competition and an alternative shopping option. Anyone fancy a ...

SteveJ I have more reason than most to hate this guy and his bank. However the reason he gets away with it is the same as why not many people from Dawlish comment Nobody can be bothered Watch the queue in the Natwest branch and ask yourself if these people cared would they still bank there. There needs to be a national boycott of RBS and Natwest, close accounts cut up credit cards and ...

Great meeting, lots said, but nothing done. Shame the two main points were overlooked 1. Unlike party candidates we have no funding therefore fund raising needs to be No 1 priority 2. As Dawlish Town Council do not have the final say on the main issues effecting the town we need to join forces with other independent groups doing similar things in the other Teignbridge district towns. That ...

@Vanguard Please tell more cant wait till tomorrow, go on give us a clue whats it about

In this mornings Herald it also appears DCC have been applying for government grant money for projects not even started. When are the people responsible going to be brought to justice. In reality they are committing fraud and theft plus the eventual discrediting of DCC

Is there any way we as a community could tell South West Water we are not prepared to accept their price rises and demand that Dawlish is dealt with by another company. Maybe we could also oust British Gas from the town for the same reasons. Idea make the banks fund the re-nationalisation of our public utilities and sack Steven Hester

What is so special about a football club business that makes it any different to other businesses when it cant pays its bills. Shut it down, sell its assets, and pay its creditors just like any normal company in receivership. Its hardly front page news in these troubled times is it

Anyone up for forming a working party to demolish it by hand. We could then move onto the ex Sally Army building the council wasted all our money on at Park Road. Just think in time we could create some extra off road parking for which we could charge less than Teignbridge and Devon County and also make a bit selling the hard core and scrap metal. Yipeee

Banning smoking and allowing supermarkets to sell cheap booze were good polices then. Maybe the government have plans to bring down the number of pubs as they have with petrol stations. Perhaps someone reading this may have the time to look for connections between the Conservatives, the Supermarket Giants and the alcohol retailing network. The results as to who owns who and who has fingers in ...

@Lynne - sainsbury's of course, but they are all the same really. interesting comment about local economy you mean with have one or how we wont have one in the future ha ha ha

Bet they use their DAWLISH shop to sell cheap booze. Just what the local wineos need, not far to walk to the happy huts, At least its another shop occupied in Town unlike many others
