My washing machine stopped mid cycle yesterday. Door is locked, clothes still in machine. Being as it was a Sunday thought to leave calling someone until this morning. So.......can anyone recommend a washing machine repairer please? Machine is a Bendix BIW 145 W Thanks

Thank you for writing to TDC Michael. I agree with your bunker mentality analysis of what is taking place at TDC. I have heard more about that attitude from others. I would add one more  thing which I and others have said before but I for one will keep saying and which is this: I understand from the present landowner, Richard Weeks, that if Warren Farm gets compulsory purchased then his farming ...

Okay - so in my very last post on the original (and very long thread) I put forward the idea that if Warren Farm were indeed to be compulsory purchased by TDC then it might ultimately end up being a commercial coastal park.

I pointed out that I was asking on behalf of others as well as myself and that I would let them know her response. I therefore put here, in the public domain, her reply. "Various points:  at ...

ITV could still air what they filmed and then read the TDC statement. Nothing stopping them from doing that.

As there were postings on this thread yesterday concerning farming activities or, more to the point, the apparent lack of them at Warren Farm I took the liberty of asking Richard Weeks what type of farming activity takes place there. This is what he told me. "There are cattle there at the moment all steers and some Aberdeen Angus. The sheep in the field are with young lambs. We have around 20 ...
