Selfish dog owners
24 Jul 2011

Why not be a lazy dog owner and get yourself a cat.

The reason for closing Shutterton refuse was because of it's cost, so did they already have it in mind to charge us at Newton Abbot/Exeter, If this is the case Shutterton could have made us pay and save us the journey. As the sign near Newton Abbot says something like Look after the environment share a Car. Better still turn off the sign and sack the bureaucrats.

After making my first visit to Newton Abbot rubbish centre since closure of Shutterton I was presented by some jobsworth a sheet of charges on things that could be disposed of. On reflection is this loud of b....cks just another way to increase council tax by stealth Cut the bureaucrats and stop the inflation proof pensions.

Tesco's Appeal
17 Feb 2011

Just how many supermarkets are needed in Dawlish and cannot Tesco accept any decisions given against them. If Tesco cannot accept any competion from other supermarkets then what will be their attitude to local shops.

The funds for the tip are already provided for by the council tax and any cuts should be made elsewhere.How much of our tax is spent on inflation proof staff pensions. It will also cost far more to clear up the new sites that will open up in the nearby countryside.

I understand the need to save money but to shut the tip at Dawlish? So much for a green policy of hundreds of cars driving to Newton or Exeter using petrol and the exhaust emissions they produce. Why not dump the underworked and overpaid bureacrats who thought this one up.

Richard Cares
2 Nov 2009

I see in local free paper from Teignmouth a box saying Richard Cares. After a good deal of reflection has anyone out there any idea what Richard Cares about?

Dear User 4549 what I could not understand where did the funishings end which we all knew about and the lease on the flat begin. Sorry did not make myself clearer.

When reading the article of Younger Ross baring his soul at the meeting with fellow liberals it seems talk was made of the lease for a flat in London.But to help those suffering convenient amnesia was not 4 mirrors,a chest of drawers and hi-fi system involved.

It may come as some surprise for the local Liberal Democrats to back our M.P.Younger Ross but what surely be the test is whether the constituents are so understanding.
