Dawlish Beach Open

Do you know if it's NR or FGW in charge of station repairs?

When I walked along I noticed the unbelievably shabby job that's been done to the station platform that's visible from the beach.  The wood has been treated/stained on the platform side (for Dave's benefit?) but from beach side it's clearly messy and unfinished.  Will it be completed professionally or is that it?

Maybe they're waiting to see what interest there is in buying it as a whole before pursuing it piecemeal, but it's poor form not to reply.  When I come to sell my house I won't use them.

I think it's on with Savills.

...and apologies to the folk at the (new) Pirates Chest for this,  but if there was one structure I would not have been sorry to see flattened by the storm, it's that monstrosity.   But since it's clearly rock solid perhaps a coat of paint and new signage wouldn't go amiss.

What causes the rusty run marks and how can they be avoided? Richard Bland is no longer the conservation officer, maybe the new one will have a better eye.  His name is Tony Dayglo. Only joking.

Yes, I'd like to know why in the first place the current colour and not the green or any other was selected.   In my opinion it's not helpful to get the conservation officer on the defensive by campaigning against the decision without understanding the background.

I wasn't being too serious, with 479 pages of product, I wouldn't even know where to start. Margaret Swift, you've obviously been involved in this sort of discussion before, would the conservation officer be the person to contact to solicit an opinion?

Clive pointed out it would have to be marine proof and referenced a company called PPG.    It has a 479 page download of its products - not come across Holly Green yet! http://www.sigmacoatings.com/marine/
