@Margaret Swift - ms swift or mrs swift whichever it may be. to who i am should not matter, for i am a person with a care, a passion and an opinion. like you are too. i am someone who takes my passion and interest and looks at a wide picture and hold an opinion without becoming opinionated. i like 90% of the people on dawlish.com choose that people do not need to know who i am for me to be able ...
It goes without saying, in the year 2000 we were promised a glass bandstand in replace of the old one. It never happened and people got on their high horses moaning, and people to this day still moan about the millennium bandstand never coming to light. This town is forever changing, the lawn will be the only bit of land we have left in a minute that has not got houses on it! We must learn to ...
@Andyasport is quite right, there is too much poo, it does not mean that you should not like the area or not visit Dawlish, because it's a lovely place to come and visit. And I'm sure most visitors will understand that dog mess is of a problem everywhere. I would say if any body can come up with some fantastic ideas to send them to our Council. I know that in Jersey they set up teams of ...
@Clive It goes without saying that yes some people though are respectful, really nice people, do still undoubtedfully find it ammusing to allow such things to happen. It's easy to set up "dog ban zones" however imagine that in Dawlish, where would you allow a dog to be let off, where could you go to allow your dogto excrete, who is going to pay for it to be monitored who will be responsible for ...
the sad thing that i find is that both @Carer and @Mrs C both have valid points in what they are saying. I walk most of Dawlish with my dogs first thing in the morning and in the evening and it is evidentially visual to me that there is way too much dog mess about, owners not picking it up, not seeing thier dogs do it, either that or it belongs to a lot of desperate people who decided ...
A Cycle Cafe? Maybe I'm not processing correctly tonight! @Margaret Swift is correct, the cycle hire shop on park road is a fantastic place and bob and the team there at breaking wind will always be welcoming and happy to help new customers be advice or to find the right bike/equipment for them. check them out at www.brakingwindcycles.co.uk/ if you haven't already! i would however like ...
Funding: I was not born yesterday, though on these message boards we seem to have to much rudeness, circling of situations and people who are very obviously getting a kick from being spiteful and enjoy telling us how someone has upset them. In recent times can we all just take a step back, breath, enjoy this town that we choose to live in and look at what is currently being done to improve the ...
Well first of all when I read PSCO and Pettinelli I then began to read the first line and though what was she doing in Septemember around "1945" then reading again I realise it meant the time of day not era. It's a shame that youth, or anyone to that matter can see this as being fun. Thought being dark around that time I wonder how they were seen to be doing it, where they approached or waved off. ...
@Kaz i can see it pretty much from the view of my house, and have walked the kids and dogs many of times in the evening when cars have gone down there, purpose unknown, harm done no, my buisness to go and have a look no. unless someone has observantly done something wrong then it's not for me to phone the police, and of course i did not wish to go and "investigate" myself, as @jools88 said, ...
well since it's on my doorstep, i don't see it as a problem at all. it is not really a turning place at all and if that's what it's being used for i have yet to see someone using it for that purpose. your correct @Kaz with what devon highways will state that it is not an adopted highway, from time to time when they retarmac roads the contracters will do the odd patches and strecthes out of ...
