of course @Lynne . some people think that having any objections is nimbyism. the problem is people living in that area can see the particular problems with the way things are being planned - of course - but if they raise it, it's nimbyism. i live near secmaton lane but not on it and can see potential problems. as for it being the posh end of town, not sure that's the case, there are 'nice' ...
This will make you laugh. Sorry, I don't know if it's available on the BBC website. (David Cameron visiting Kingsteignton) https://www.facebook.com/bbcspotlight/videos/1033774580021373/

Thanks Ducki, I think 'once upon a time' probably says it all! It's a bit like the playparks etc promised at various other sites which never happened; a fairy tale. My conveyancing lawyer told me to never trust what the estate agents say, they can't promise anything unless it's signed, sealed and delivered (to quote Steve Wonder). Best to buy a house with houses all round it these days I think.
@ken - thanks, those were the ones i was referring to.
No wonder all those houses are up for sale! Estate agent tried to sell us a house up there, swore blind they were building a cemetry up there.
he doesn't look like a scrubbed potato @slargemail . i have no respect for the royal family or the national anthem @burneside but am perfectly able to have respect for the people who serve our country. does it make me odious if i too refuse to sing the national anthem?
I think the advanced notice signs are a great idea.
