Families of MG Rover workers made redundant when the car giant collapsed were being welcomed aboard the first of five free train services to the seaside today. Virgin Trains is laying on special trains from Longbridge station to the Devon resorts of Dawlish Warren, Dawlish, Teignmouth, Torquay and Paignton this week. The trains will leave Longbridge railway station each morning for the three-hour ...

You may well be right about those places in Somerset. I only went to Wiveliscombe which seemed quite lively in comparison to Dawlish.

I dunno, St James looked OK to me but then again so did Dawlish at first glance! Theres another factor though for us in that we need a bigger house. I notice you mention Totnes - almost London prices by the look of it, and VERY alternative. I know Exeter has a huge drugs problem but as you say, the student vibe is there which I like very much.

I'd much rather see a nice B&B with hanging baskets than a dilapidated flat with rubbish piled up outside. Also they might attract more upmarket tourists which would lead to better shops and cafes etc etc. You have to admit it. Dawlish is a downmarket town, run by the retired for the retired. The front page of todays Dawlish post says it all - the first development in the town for years (the ...

Some of South Devon's very best beaches have been given the thumbs-up by a conservation charity. The Marine Conservation Society Good Beach Guide is one of four beach award initiatives, but it is the only scheme that focuses entirely on water quality standards and the risk of sewage pollution, rather than beach management. The society will only recommend beaches in the guide if they meet the Blue ...

Teignbridge is promoting the government's walking the way to health scheme with a timetable of short guided rambles up to six days a week free of charge. Walk This Way Teignbridge strolls take less than an hour and all ages are welcome, including people in pushchairs and wheelchairs. There is no need to book, just turn up for walks around Bovey Tracey, Buckfastleigh, Chudleigh, Dawlish, ...

A new CCTV control room in the centre of Newton Abbot will help police detect more crime, the Devon and Cornwall force says. They are also hoping the scheme will be extended to cover smaller towns, including Bovey Tracey and Dawlish. The scheme is being jointly funded by the police, the district council and the town council. Police say other towns in Teignbridge are now expressing an interest in ...

I'm going on holiday to Dawlish this year. I'm psyched. I'm going to chase the ducks, and go to Somerfield bargain corner Takes me 30 hours door to door to get to Dawlish

house exchange 2bed(council)(ha) 2bed sought, we live in a village called Rothwell near leeds, we are looking to move anywhere with a teignbridge council landlord area, contact us for details. (Homesick)!!

Don't forget that people are a little behind the times down here and take a while to catch on. I expect the first incident of happy slapping to occur in 2010. (Note the new Indian Takeaway - Dawlish moves forward into the 1970s!)

I have given up nn trying to get a sensible discussion on schools and what they achieve. I did try a route that may work !

Hiya, we are a young couple looking to rent in Dawlish. We are non smokers and have good references and deposit and ready to move in immediately, our budget is about £450 per month, any help would be appreciated!

Hmmmmmmm... there is much in these postings about spellings and grammar. Is it intended as a joke? The original posting refers to the "standard of english" (sic) and "scruffy dressed children". Some further work required here on capitalisation and the use of adverbs. People in glass houses should not throw stones.

Also semantics like '):, ;), :(' all have meaning on the internet, but are not part of any language. So, my point is, don't waste your time worrying about whether every word you write is 'correct'. If some pedant points out to you you may be be wrong, make a mental note & move on. Generally, they are pointing out something you already know or have learned, but forgot...

please visit https://www.dawlish.com/AirTrainingCorps/ we are currently in need of both adult staff and cadets, many thanks.

ah well a bit before my time, wasn't interested in gambeling back then, just interested in the clanggers etc then, and star wars (of course).

yeah I did lived down the road from him when they used to live in newlands, haven't seen him for a while though.

A 17-year-old is recovering in Torbay Hospital after being stabbed in the leg on Satuday evening. The teenager, who was not local, was walking through Brunswick Place at around 11pm when he was assaulted. His injuries are not thought to be life-threatening. Early Sunday morning a trail of blood could be seen along Brunswick Place and on to the Lawn, and the police soon taped off the area for ...

I agree with you Alex. Thats why I don't bother posting on here anymore. Its a shame - but no one in Dawlish seems to write to the papers either, despite having plenty of time to do so. Very strange - is it something in those sea mists I wonder?

ps If the names here are shaded light grey (instead of black) it means you can click on the name and see the e mail address !

Perhaps because Anne is from Russia and Alex is from Dawlish (which is in England), and dawlish.com is on the WWW, Anne put 2&2 together & thought maybe someone from Dawlish might know Alex? I guess you are not studying logic...?

Didn't the Bradshaw brothers once indulge in an erotic S&M session with Sarah Perryman?

Remember this - he hit some lad with a baseball bat or snooker cue & kiiled him - mid-eighties. Is he still inside?

Blonde joke. A young blonde lass from the sticks went for a job at her local riding stables.The vacancy was for a stable girl. The first question she was asked at the interview was: 'Have you ever shoe'd a horse before luv? 'No, can't say that I have.' replied the blonde, 'But I told one to f*** off once'!! I've adapted that one slightly.Think it was a Jethro joke.

thanks for the info was a great little pub spent many a boozy night playing eucre and darts well missed little local as is dawlish

Probably in June or July - haven't been for a couple of years. Happy to meet supplicants.

Please leave it on the Library doorstep or put it through the letterbox if you have no bag. Be sure to attach a sticky 'post-it' note with your name, and you can pop in later for your reward.

sorry but he ain't in my ward so can't do much about it, y don't you stand as an independant or something, as they say if you can't beat them join them

Mindful won't be posting on these boards for a while as he has gone to hospital, with a dual diagnosis! Firstly he is suffering from a syndrome, known to many doctors, which is caused by repeatedly projecting one's skull on to a construction of cuboid shaped fired clay objects, placed in layers on top of each other. This eventually renders the patient unconscious and is sometimes referred to as ...

It would be great to get a specific example. Do you have any?

Well I do and as time goes on the more corrupt this place appears to be. Don't like the dog sh*t either, all part of the general sense of not caring and people doing as they lack.

That if there's a register saying that they're not Masons, then everyone else is. Moot anyway, . So why don't they just simply lie on the Register.
