Really, well I must live in a different Dawlish to the one they are talking about!
Taking a walk through The Lawn yesterday evening and the usual site of our infamous drinking club at the shelter by the tourist info centre partaking in their usual consumption alcohol. You can have as many signs/notices as you like, but those it is intended for will ignore them. As to enforcing the notices.

Not one question asked ....do you want a play park on The Lawn? Another waste of money to duplicate a facility that already exists in the local area.

All the best to James in Rio.
Pic of the Brook outlet on the 30th Aug 2016, a week and a half later. If We get any continuous heavy rain this will cause quite a mess.
NIce motorhomes, they must have cost the owner's a pretty penny. Anyone know if they have moved on yet?
