@leatash - which cycle path or bit of cycle path was it that you monitored? did you do it all day for those seven days? I can't say I noted the exact numbers of cyclists I saw using the various cycle paths during the summer or the numbers of more elderly aged cyclists that I saw in the town in September /October of last year, BUT I do know that the number was such that it was noticeable ...
It's what was James's Plantation
Well it's free in the same sense that pensioner bus pass fares are free, and over 60 prescriptions are free, and state schooling is free, and NHS treatment is free (but not dental), and lollipop school crossing patrols are free and so on and so forth.

Other than making a comment about planning applications neither Dawlish or Teignmouth Town Councils have any clout when it comes to what gets built or not in their respective towns. That decision making is the perogative of TDC councillors who sit on TDC's planning committee BUT BUT BUT what decisions they make are ...
No Probs. Always ask me to explain if I start using jargon that you don't understand. On the subject of which........
