Re Thresher shop, so which Charity is taking over there as we've been hearing this story for 18 months, does anyone actually know if this is true or is it just another 'story', charity shop, estate agent,........ etc etc etc. The list of what is was 'going to be' is endless. It was definately going to be a discount store because I know the people who wanted to take it over but the Landlords terms ...
Is this the 'scheme', seems to claim letters were sent out last year, but only had a quick read so can't make an informed comment http://www.devon.gov.uk/index/councildemocracy/decision_making/cma/cma_report.htm?cmadoc=report_htm1126.html
I'm sure you'll find most of what you need at Sainsburys, with the added advantage of free parking right outside the door.
Just wonder where the punters are going to park!!
Yep, agreed about the punishment but am sure it is against their Human Rights, it's the same with all the nonsense we were told about people on Jobseekers allowance who were supposed to do community work. Knowing someone who has been on Benefits for 4 years I asked how this affected him. It didn't, as all the clearing and tidying up jobs he was 'offered' were all several miles from Dawlish and as ...
OK, Nelson, I am going to shoot myself in the foot now, a very interesting read is the Revenge of Gaia, by James Lovelock. Gaia is an 'old' god but basically Nature, the point being is that Nature will take revenge on Man, quite passively by the problems we are beginning to see due to Climate change, due, in some part to our behaviour. I do find it difficult to refute the arguments and research of ...
'humankind are accelerating the current phase of climate warming' well that depends on which expert you listen to/read, you pays your money and takes your choice, to requote a well known saying 'there are lies, damned lies and statistics.
The World has always changed and evolved and will always continue to do so. I have been down Mines in areas that were once volcanic and picked up fish fossils in arid areas of Africa as these exceptionally dry areas were once under the sea. If we were living during those time we would have been complaining about Climate change depriving us of our fish as the sea receeded!!!!! Man is never happy!! ...
So when exactly will the A379 be under water? I'm sure someone will notice before it gets so bad that we can't make alternative plans. I wish Global Warming would hurry up, it's going to mean a big saving on energy bills. Considering that World Governments have been having meetings for years and issuing dire warnings about the catastrophe that is to happen, but: The Kyoto Protocol was negotiated ...
I have seen Sparrowhawks catch pigeons in a City Centre and pluck out the chest while holding the pigeon on the pavement. Man kills and eats millions of animals a day so don't know why a Hawk having a feed is considered 'disgusting' or 'scary'.
