Stand on any road in Dawlish and witness the bad driving, speeding and parking on double yellow lines. People get away with it because, as I found out very recently, traffic wardens employed by TDC (or whatever their newfangled name is) only focus on meter and car park offences. On-street parking offences are covered by Devon County Council, but, when I asked how may officers were employed in ...
I hate them too stephen15! Be great if they are forced to use more HSTs down here. Happy New Year too.
@stephen15 it was so bad throughout the morning and into the afternoon that the waves were hitting the up platform so the cc voyager trains would have been hit whatever line they were on and then they would have broken down. it would be better if cc ran hsts on our route then they wouldn't have to stop at exeter.
So........what are WE going to do about it? It's all well and good voicing opinions on here but it is action we need so............back to my original question, what are we going to do about it?
I think you are right carer. Walked past the happy hut at 4.30 this afternoon and counted 14 people all doing what they do at the happy hut! 15 minutes later there were three policmen, not at the happy hut but down at the seafront, looking at what appeared to be a piece of vertical pipe sticking out of the sand and pebbles.

It did but nothing seems to be happening. Will there be an outlet and toilets there next spring? I very much doubt it!
You are absolutely right Lynne. Even in the seventies couples could get a mortgage on 2.5 x the main salary and 1x the second salary. And those that could not afford a mortgage could expect a council house within a few years, not decades, as is the case now!! Where did it all go wrong?
Don't know. Don't use them as no one else does!
It is a sad fact these days, in this country, that unless there are while lines and arrows painted on the road telling motorists what to do then too many do not know what to do or which lane to use! But............worse than that, virtually nobody uses their indicators to let other motorists know their intentions. I have to say this is a particular feature of driving in the SW and one which drives ...
