And there was recently an article in the Dawlish Post advising the council how to deal with what they themselves term (vexatious requests). Another nail in the coffin of democracy.
And have you ever noticed how many feel sorry for the dis badge holders, (I do) but not for those that claim one and then spend an afternoon or evening walking up and down the bowling alley/green. I have observed them parking in the Strand, get out of their car with a walking stick, hobble to the green and then throw their stick away for the remainder of the afternoon and then pick up their stick ...
It's not Tosh mo mo, it's fact and where as Roy won't name this den of iniquity, I will! It is the Mount Pleasant Inn. Now why do they hold their regular sinbads there? Usually Monday or Tuesday. Just look at the array of transport they have in the carpark, no bus transport, even though the bus passes the door every fifteen minutes and many of them are entitled to a free ride.

It is quite clear from some of the postings that some people have an extrodinary imagination. They haven't a clue how the system works and that is because there is little if any transparency in the system to inform them.
