I can honestly say I have never heard of this committee.

Missed it this year as I was downing cheap drinks at the RBL. However, it's always been political and the UK will never win it again. Plus, Wogan threatens to leave every year.

Apparently, there is no longer a bus service from Exeter to Torquay via Dawlish etc. It now only goes as far as Teignmouth and turns around. Should you wish to get the bus to Torquay, you need to change at Teignmouth. Basically, they've scrapped the 85A.

A very irate customer in co-op having a go at the security guard for parking in the loading bay outside. Finished up with the customer being thrown out for verbal abuse, and it nearly came to blows. I have never seen a security guard in co-op nor any trouble. Now as soon as a security guard turns up, trouble follows. Though the guard was a nice enough fellow, why was he employed? Has there been ...
