@bikesforall . good idea and good luck. and whoever decides to open a mobility scooter repair shop in dawlish would definitely be onto a winner!
I've never been in to Home Kitchen, but I would have thought that it would be snapped up quite quickly. Obviously its the leasehold thats for sale and its not clear how long is left on the lease, but an asking price of £59,950 for a £70,000 turnover business might be worth a punt as there's got to scope for increasing that t/o.
Good news for the tourist industry and for residents who enjoy our beaches - if only the people responsible for maintaining the beaches round here would properly clean/clear them more regularly.
Ah sorry, my Googling failed me. The Tory paper candidate resignation only 2 weeks after winning at the ballot box, was followed by a by-election. The co-opting that I mis-read about was after a much later resignation by an independent. Apologies for the inaccuracy.
This is a matter that the police are aware of. I'd expect that the ABH or GBH that Sniper is inciting would, rightly, result in the perpetrator being brought to justice. Don't take justice into your own hands, just phone the police on 101 if you see or know the man described by Ziggy.
Oh yes, I seem to recall, now that you've reminded me, that someone with no party political allegiance was co-opted onto the Town Council after that paper candidate put up by the Tories got elected at the ballot but then immediately resigned. You could never imagine a Tory-controlled council co-opting an independently-minded candidate, could you?
If only someone with no vested interests would put themselves forward to be co-opted onto the town council...
I also thought that it sounded familiar when I read the story in Saturday's paper. I find it so sad that party politics is so influential at town council level. The political parties were comprehensively ousted in Cullompton, and the rump of tories left behind should have allowed the independants to get on with putting right the wrongs that years of party political control had caused. I hope that ...
Oh behave, you sound like a party politician. A 40p newspaper is not necessarily affordable to all. Why only pick on affordable housing? Is affordable housing only affordable if [i]everyone[/i] can afford it? Maybe I shouldn't have used the word "allegation", and used "implication" instead. The question still stands though - you implied that only 11 dwellings were being proposed for that field in ...
And you've also apparently missed the logic behind the reason for there being only 11 dwellings proposed for that field. If your allegation was true, then why aren't 14 dwellings being proposed for that field?
