No, they are not brent geese (they've only just started arriving for the winter): these are Canada geese. But I don't know where they go at night: maybe the Teign estuary ?
Well, I tried 'clearing my browsing data' in Chrome, and it seems to have gone away, fingers crossed.

Maybe it's just me ... but for the last few days I get a red message box "500 - Internal server error" when I try to connect to www.dawlish.com. Using Chrome on XP Pro. Tried using Firefox this a.m. and it seems to be OK. Anyone else ?
Spotlight last night (I think I've got this right) was saying we can expect a second platform/crane to turn up alongside this one. Don't know when. But it still looks as though we won't get our seawall walk back till January (assuming no more storms !).
Had to miss the Air Show this year, sadly. But, as I was coming out of the Smugglers yesterday about 6-ish, who should fly over but the Red Arrows, in two tight groups of four and five.

A shameless plug for the closing performance of this year's (61st !) annual Dawlish Arts Festival. At 7:30 Saturday 28th June, in the parish church, a concert including the first great English opera, Purcell's "Dido & Aeneas". Bit of a rarity, don't miss it. £9 (under 18s £2 only).
