General Discussion

Take a look on Eyes of Dawlish fb for a posting about Easterhill nursery. Seems it is under new management and there are lots of plants for sale at incredibly low prices. Bedding plants at 5p each apparently. Nursery open 9-6. https://www.facebook.com/EODawlish

On this violet garden angle. Could we also have other flowers and plants that attract bees and butterflies? And scented flowers for the visually impaired?

"It's not easy, but the alternative would have been to see an opportunity pass by that isn't likely to come around again soon." Unless of course Dawlish were to be in a marginal parliamentary constituency and there was a general election on the horizon? Just saying..........

well now.........if, by submitting that bid to the CCF, Dawlish ends up with CCF financial input for some kind of project aimed at boosting the local economy then won't the £23,000 spent by the town council have been money well spent? Not that for one moment do I think that whatsoever the CCF say they are prepared to fund will  be agreeable to everyone because it goes without saying that it ...

Don't see why not. And I say that on two counts. 1. Believe planning permission is being sought to raise the height of the wall. As with any other planning application people will be able to say what they think about what is being proposed. ie I support this planning application because..........I object to this planning application because..........  But note that just because people register ...

Quite. What I find amazing is why anyone living along there thinks their wishes for privacy will take priority over the security of the rail line. Which isn't to say that they aren't entitled to express their concerns and wishes - of course they are. It's just that the rail line and its security will trump any objections concerning privacy and/or noise.

Oh do I soooooo miss not being able to walk along the beach (low tide) or sea wall path when there's a higher tide twixt the town and the bridge by Rockstone. Exeter Road is unbelievably boring to walk along. And take a look at page XVI of the property pages in today's Gazette. Force and Sons are acting as agents for a ground floor flat for sale on Sea Lawn Terrace. It'll have more than ...

Yes beautiful day. Travelled back to Dawlish from Newton Abbot on train. Lovely journey any day but absolutely stunning on days like today. Tide was out. Saw lots of kids exploring the exposed rocks on the various beaches and having a great time. Thank you for reporting the apparent sewerage leak Flo. I saw it as I was going out but although I had phone I didn't have SWW phone number to hand. ...

@webmaster -given that issues relating to the fire at the rock pool cafe have been covered at great and repetitive length on this website,  particularly by one individual poster, i just wondered if any further discussion on already running threads/new threads should now be prevented? Not suggesting that what has already been posted should be deleted. Personally I have problems with that. ...

So, Annother46, and again as I have said before, if you wish to make the points you make above public and be prepared to put your real name in the public arena, why not write a letter to the Gazette instead of continually and repeatedly raising the same issues on here hiding behind a posting name ? After all you're only raising matters concerning the public purse aren't you? Well, aren't you? ...
