SEAL
30 Aug 2015

Not seen the seal yet but there were several dolphins off Parson and the Clerk a couple of weeks ago.

It's probably no coincidence that every time I go past Gay's Creamery it's packed with customers - it's open til 9pm and 7 days a week.  Meanwhile this summer I've passed Witches Bowl, Reflections and Dabbling Duck in the afternoon and they've been shut.  I haven't figured out if they've closed down or open and close when they feel like it.

I don't like to see sprawling housing estates but eighty years ago the people of Dawlish probably felt the same about the housing most of us currently live in - anyone seen th photos of Dawlish before the trees were chopped down to make way for all the housing up to East Cliff and West Cliff Roads.  That's unfortunately how it is.

So you're saying Clemens' land is one of the other three SANGS options??  Seriously?

And of course the same could be levelled at Humphrey Clemens whose letter in the Gazette demonstrates a foregone conclusion in his mind too. Any chance Manor Farm in Holcombe would be a suitable site for SANGS?

SoulofDawlish - it's a shame you didn't have the good sense to stop posting anonymously as soon as your nomination was published but more importantly how are you now going to deal with the inevitable accusations of predetermination on Warren Farm when your unequivocal views are in the public domain?
