Don't know when the outcome of the Tesco Appeal will be known but do know that the Appeal Hearing is scheduled to start on Tuesday 17th May. Due to run over three days I believe.
Yes, you are correct about some Lib Dems (2? 3?) on TDC either voting against or abstaining on the vote re whether or not Sainsbury's should build at Shutterton Bridge. Believe they may have done the same re the Tesco application to build at Lady's Mile as well. I think Cllr Connett abstained because he thought the amount of money on offer via the Seciton 106 agreement (£200,000) was not enough ...
I'm not sticking up for the councillors and their support for Dawlish having a new supermarket. I am making a statement of fact. (that they argued in favour of Dawlish having one). And another statement of fact is that I am not one of them, nor am I related to any of them nor am I related to any of those standing for election for the first time.

Back? I wasn't aware that I'd gone away. Seemed to me that it wasn't the new supermarket chain that was being accused of being a newcomer and trying to change things.

I'm not being doom and gloom. Fact of life. Age of Austerity. And money has always been tight for me also - like many others.

See, not all doom and gloom.
