I think the wotsit might hit the wotsit again the minute Tesco go public on their next crazed idea for Dawlish. (Ooops! Sorry!.That's supermarkets again isn't it)

Even if you were to include a car park and,say, a petrol station there would still be a lot of land left over. What could that be used for? A retail park? And/or perhaps Tesco would want it to expand their store sometime in the future.

Which is not to say that you may not find other postings by someone using the name 'Bogof'because you may well do. For example, on the Carnival thread there are postings under that name but they were not made by me. I know we don't have ...
How can those green pastures at Sandy Lane not be affected if a supermarket gets built there?! I think you'll find that FOE (Friends of the Earth) have been doing petition in town against supermarket being built at Sandy Lane - people have been falling over themselves to sign it. Repeat - Teignbridge District Council, who are the landowners, have no intention of that land being used for anything ...
I love living here.
