I see from the planning documents that this application is to be decided by the planning committee ie district councillors. Well at least that might afford some entertaining debate and visible planning decision making rather than the decision being made, quietly, behind the scenes, by planning officers. BTW - a few years back I went up the road in Teignmouth that goes up towards Teignmouth ...
If it doesn't continue there will be many an elderly person in Dawlish who will desperately miss it as quite a few in that age group use it. They may have had cars in the past, or never at all, but they certainly don't own one now. I know because they are my neighbours. Without this bus service how will they (and others who live elsewhere on the bus route) get in and out of the town, to/from the ...
Is this the 186 service?
To return to the Statue of Happiness planning application.

OMG! Did you not hear my hoots of derisive laughter from all those hundreds of miles away? Oh the irony of ...
Oh, he's moved then. Didn't realise. And isn't it a Conservative councillor on Devon County Council representing a ward in Newton Abbot who lives in France?

Could TDC afford to shoot that goose? Also ...

It was such a lovely day yesterday (Saturday) that I couldn’t help but take myself out for a walk down to the Warren. I started off along Warren Road and, as I passed Warren Farm, I could see farmer Richard Weeks at the far end of one of his fields putting feed out for his sheep. I lent against the farm gate for some 5 minutes or so watching this lovely scene with its backdrop of the sparkling ...
