It was such a lovely day yesterday (Saturday) that I couldn’t help but take myself out for a walk down to the Warren. I started off along Warren Road and, as I passed Warren Farm, I could see farmer Richard Weeks at the far end of one of his fields putting feed out for his sheep. I lent against the farm gate for some 5 minutes or so watching this lovely scene with its backdrop of the sparkling ...

I know there is another thread but it is some 98 posts long and not infrequently goes off topic. I have been sent these links (they have only just been set up so not all have info on them - yet.)

So.........with the silence still continuing on this matter from the vast majority of our councillors (both town and district) might I suggest that if they come knocking on our doors in the coming weeks and/or have stalls in the town in an effort to get themselves re-elected, perhaps those of us concerned about this issue might take the opportunity to ask them all what their stance is on it and ...

For that, according to TDC, is its raison d'etre. It needs to be there to stop people going to the Warren! ...

Nice weather a few days back (plus a dire need to start walking off winter gained excess poundage!) took me off for a stroll around the Secmaton area. I noticed that a couple of the dwellings along Secmaton Lane were displaying easily readable notices in their gardens so I ‘ad a read and what I read was the following.

Thank you for that link and the info in it. Very interesting. This is what it says on page 41 re car park income from the car park(s) at Dawlish Warren. Income April to August 2013 = £149,275 Income April to August 2014 = £155,671 And as cars continue to park there outside of the April to August time period the amount per financial year must be higher than that shown between April to ...

Am told (via a private e-mail and thus can't say who told me, but the info is from someone who would know) that in 2013 TDC had an income of £155,671 from the Dawlish Warren car parks. Have looked on TDC's website for more info but cant find anything.
