If personal conversations & photos were hacked from her Facebook account, the councillors must have known they were obtained illegally & should not have passed them on. I think the general behaviour of our council has been disgusting & I am very disillusioned with the lot of them - they should be working together for the good of Dawlish & not squabbling amongst themselves like a bunch of primary ...

Rain

Already drains can't cope. Came back through Teignmouth this morning & water pouring out of 2 near Broadmeadow Industrial Estate.

What will happen is that people will get in their cars and head to the nearest indoor entertainment - Torquay, Exeter, etc. thus adding to traffic congestion and doing nothing for the council's or government's so-called "green" agenda.

Sounds as if she really shouldn't have been out at that time of night in such a dangerous location. Fortunately, it all ended well. Once again we have to thank the emergency services who did a wonderful job.

Was out of Dawlish until late yesterday afternoon and returned via Luscombe Hill so was unaware of what was happening. All credit to the emergency services who did a very good job in tricky circumstances; you can never be too careful and they were right to be suspicious of the suitcase as it was in a prime position. Talking about it with someone this morning, there seems to be a feeling that this ...

My Cornish friend says that all pasties made outside Cornwall are imposters anyway and should be taxed accordingly!

Tracy, when I lived up nearer "Seven Sisters", they were in my garden. A few years back the RSPB used to organise walks in the general area in order to spot them. I live nearer town now & haven't seen any for several years. Don't want to be too specific about the area - as you say, there are a few stupid people around. Again, as you say this is part of the area that Teignbridge now want to develop ...
