Dawlish Man, Do you consider it more ridiculous than voting for a party that would not represent me or voting for a party only because I dislike others more? Because the right to vote was dearly bought, I do feel that I should recognise that through my attendance and, yes, I do realise its futility. However, ultimately, all is futile and I act as I believe to be right for me. Don
I don't vote. None of the parties represent my views. However, I do go to destroy my ballot paper.
Careful, Maricon99, Soon, someone will accuse you of being me, or vice versa. Don
Sid We all know the way that some customers behave and I agree that it is to be deplored.

I don't quite understand why you feel that an attack on maricon99's post is warranted. Don
I think that you are being a little unfair to maricon99, guys. Even if the poster does not wish to name the person concerned, the post serves as a reminder to all that local businesses need their customers in order to survive.

The excellent link provided by Wild Ash a few days ago included a map showing the erosion over the period 1851 - 1962. link repeated I know that Dawlish Man read the document but, much to my amazement, I discovered that I could post the map here for other forum users. Those seriously interested really should read the sections from about halfway down the page covering the erosion, previous storm ...
No offence intended, guys. You know (what I am pleased to think of as) my sense of humour. Don
you read last year's thread from the Backyard: Link to last year I feel that I can safely predict that the same views will be expressed again, with the only differences being that Roy has undergone a name transplant and Viaduct appears to have wandered off along it. Alternatively, you could browse through a number of other similar threads over the last few years where the same posters present ...
I get all of my meat, fish, bread, pasties and vegetables from local shops and I hardly buy tinned or frozen food. Milk, breakfast cereals, pasta, cat food and chocolate is all I buy at supermarkets Your shopping habits are pretty similar to mine - therefore, the question. Is your preference for Sainsbury's based on your being resigned to a supermarket being built or on a real desire to have one ...
I realise that it will be more convenient than travelling to Newton Abbot to a supermarket. However, surely having either Tesco or Sainsbury so close must adversely affect local shops, many of which are struggling already?
