General Discussion
@Carer - i hear where you're coming from on that one.
@Mrs C - I think you will find that some people who read a post may not agree with a particular comment, but do not wish to actually comment themselves. The dis agree option would assist in balancing opinion on an individual comment. I don't see where fair comes into the suggestion I have put forward.
It's nice to have the option to AGREE on this site on a comment, but can we also have the option to show a disagree as well?
Do the people of Dawlish want this? I feel that the council is slowly eradicating many of the Victorian features of this town with items that detracted from Dawlish's unique look and feel. Why can't we just have the bandstand replaced with a victorian style, wrought iron bandstand. Why theme park around 45% to 50% of the existing lawn with items that are not inkeeping. We've already experienced ...
Uhm! what can one say. I didn't think that contest could get any worse, I was wrong.

The problem faced in this country on the subject of lack of housing is an issue caused by one group of people who have no housing issues themselves, far from it. Can anyone guess what group that may be? Indeed, that is correct, the Government. Through 'Right to buy' on council houses at massive discounts to the purchaser through to a non effective immigration policy and enforced via the ...
@Onport1968 - im not adverse to extra houses being built. what i do object to is all the usual planning guidelines that the rest of us have to endure being thrown out the windows for these gluttonous developers. The houses are so close together, little or no gardens, minimal parking. A two bed flat I saw advertised, on this estate, has 3 gagrages below it and I presume only one belongs to ...
Walking on the hills above Dawlish and took a couple of photo's of the ever increasing carbuncle they call a housing development these days. It's just a mass of boxes slammed as close together as possible. When you consider the planning applications for some small changes to peoples homes get turned down, but this thing just does what it wants! As they say money talks.
