Excellent letter from Peter and Pam Cross, and Ali Aitchison, I totally agree. There is plenty of parking off Strand, we don't need cars blocking it. Dawlish has to move on.
The London 2012 site answered my question: Where will the Torch actually be carried by a Torchbearer? We want to give our Torchbearers who carry the Olympic Flame a sense of occasion and a crowd helps with that. As a result, Torchbearers will carry the Olympic Flame in many rural communities but it is not a continuous Relay of people passing the Olympic Flame to each other. Between communities, ...
So what's its route between Teignmouth and Exeter? The interactive map shows a straight line between the two. Perhaps it's going to fly!!? http://www.london2012.com/olympic-torch-relay-map
Webmaster, I find most of Rainbow's posts irrelevant, distracting and agressive. His/her language doesn't bother me, but I get the feeling that Rainbow is just having a good laugh at Dawlish.com's expense. And Dallas doesn't help by being agressive and swearing in reponse.

So we're having a public consultation on two working days! Anyone doing a standard 9-5 working week only has a couple of hours to get there on Thursday evening when they probably have family commitments! Why isn't it also on Saturday and Sunday as well?

Most traffic approaching Dawlish from either the Exeter or Teignmouth sides of the town is heading to Dawlish, not past it. That's one of the more charming aspects to the town, it's not actually on the way to anywhere!
No, they haven't cut down on their products, they've just rearranged the store! If you look you'll see they have the same ranges as before.
