@Clive It goes without saying that yes some people though are respectful, really nice people, do still undoubtedfully find it ammusing to allow such things to happen. It's easy to set up "dog ban zones" however imagine that in Dawlish, where would you allow a dog to be let off, where could you go to allow your dogto excrete, who is going to pay for it to be monitored who will be responsible for ...

the sad thing that i find is that both @Carer and @Mrs C both have valid points in what they are saying. I walk most of Dawlish with my dogs first thing in the morning and in the evening and it is evidentially visual to me that there is way too much dog mess about, owners not picking it up, not seeing thier dogs do it, either that or it belongs to a lot of desperate people who decided ...

A Cycle Cafe? Maybe I'm not processing correctly tonight! @Margaret Swift is correct, the cycle hire shop on park road is a fantastic place and bob and the team there at breaking wind will always be welcoming and happy to help new customers be advice or to find the right bike/equipment for them. check them out at www.brakingwindcycles.co.uk/‎ if you haven't already! i would however like ...

Funding

Funding: I was not born yesterday, though on these message boards we seem to have to much rudeness, circling of situations and people who are very obviously getting a kick from being spiteful and enjoy telling us how someone has upset them. In recent times can we all just take a step back, breath, enjoy this town that we choose to live in and look at what is currently being done to improve the ...

@Kaz i can see it pretty much from the view of my house, and have walked the kids and dogs many of times in the evening when cars have gone down there, purpose unknown, harm done no, my buisness to go and have a look no. unless someone has observantly done something wrong then it's not for me to phone the police, and of course i did not wish to go and "investigate" myself, as @jools88 said, ...

well since it's on my doorstep, i don't see it as a problem at all. it is not really a turning place at all and if that's what it's being used for i have yet to see someone using it for that purpose. your correct @Kaz with what devon highways will state that it is not an adopted highway, from time to time when they retarmac roads the contracters will do the odd patches and strecthes out of ...

Right well, we don't have much longer on this and I'm surprised we don't have more people sharing their ideas here which is a great shame, however I have had a few more ideas so below I have made a list of them all, along with all the suggestions above. 1. An Orientation "Oblisk" at Sandy Lane would be a spectacular landscape, architech and display. 2. More dog bins, the new lane between ...

Well the following I think are worthy projects, admittidly a few of these are going to be costing more than £25,000 alone but this is Dawlish we are talking about and I feel the following would flourish Dawlish in such a big way that it would be amazing. 1. An Orientation "Oblisk" at Sandy Lane would be a spectacular landscape, architech and display. 2. More dog bins, the new lane ...

Pram Race
16 Aug 2013

I know a few more things here, and what happened to Mr Farley and the cause of that picture was down to "Family" politics. So firstly it was going to happen and secondly it was done by people he "Should" know very well. What I do not and fail to understand is that the Raft Race, Pram Race and It's a Knockout has been about 50% The Event and 50% Water Bombs, Egg's and Flower. People going to watch ...
