Dawlish News
@Mcjrpc - i agree with you that some of the vendors who supply to visitors at the powderham event may have been sourced locally, maybe not. does that justifiy teignbridge giving £100k to a major corperation that is funded to excess by the public already? As has already been commented on - Air Show £15k (not supported by the T.D.C goons) 80-100k visitors and we still have to pay Teignbridge ...
I think Dawlish town council may wish to change the intro to the website below, even though it has not been adopted by them - why have it then! Seems to sum them up. May be it's another April Fool, duh! http://www.localcouncils.org/dawlish/ 'Serving the people of Dawlish'. Yes, but with what? A bad taste!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Drugs, Dawlish,,,, what a shocker, who would have thought it, not. From the rumours I have heard drugs/alcohol linked to social issues in Dawlish has been going on for decades.
Yes and we know where all these units will be destined for when the North gets rid of them - the west country!
@Lynne - appreciate the info on the minutes - i assume the 'third party' is the bbc? i think the only reason it was made confidential is that a lot of local people would have been disgraced by the action to ban public and press from this, if they had known! As in the minutes it was not part of a written contract, but word of mouth from the third party to keep it confidential. I can understand ...
If it is being labelled 'Radio 1's Big Weekend' aka BBC and the BBC are promoting it as 'Radio 1's Big Weekend goes to Exeter, Devon', Why are we having to put any money into it. It is being staged at a Privately owned venue. BBC want it then the BBC should pay for it. Now if it was being staged at 'The Lawn' or/and 'The Den' I wouldn't be as unhappy, but £100,000 of hard earned money by the ...
Hope they catch the person(s) who did this. I cannot believe no one saw this happen if the time the incident occurred is correct - 12:30 - 3:00pm, middle of the day! If the car is written off you can normally buy it back off the insurance company. The damage to the car looks mainly cosmetic, a new mirror(s) and a bit of bashing on the inside of the roof and you've got a decent car for a ...
@FredBassett - good points, don't the local/district/county council's get some sort of allowance for the total number of miles of cycle path on their patch. i saw to often the lunacy of these developements in london, when i lived there. they would take an extremely busy road, which always had hundred's of cars parked on it and put a cycle path on it. the cyclist's could never use it because ...
@ZIGGY - thanks for the heads up, but call 101 what a joke that service is - not fit for purposes. Okay I suppose if you want to sit on your phone line racking up a charge for 20 to 40 min's or more!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Checking the reg they show, I know they say 'similar to', but checking car parts websites that specific reg does not exist anyway. Would it not have been ...
What is worse for dog owner's who actually pick up their dog's no 2's is stepping in some that hasn't been picked up by an ignorant dog walker, obviously I exclude blind dog's who I would pickup myself if I saw it doing a no 2. Can't expect the owner to pick it up. What's the green paint for. If they do it on the grass it makes it more camoflauged than it was before, typical council ...
