Give the clothes to a charity shop. In my experience (and I am an avid carbooter and charity shop shopper) prices are higher in charity shops than at car boots. And if the charity shop doesn't want any or all of the clothes they will probably be able to sell them for ragging and raise money that way. Also of course if you sell at a car boot you have to pay a fee to do so. So, say £5-£8 will ...
re doctors' surgery opposite Gatehouse School - my cynicism re the gen. public's influence on planning matters is now such that I have stopped closely following what is happening re planning applications. So this is from memory - believe that NHS Devon said that they could accommodate extra patients created by all the new build by expanding the surgery/hospital site at Barton. Also, developers ...
Car boot today (Sunday 5th October) 4.30pm Sainsbury's car park. (Provided the weather doesn't change for the worse between now and then of course)

Also - First Great Western has a magazine called Escape. It is available free to all FGW customers. Does anyone know if the repair works have featured in it? If not, might it be an idea that they could do so? and - I see from looking at Escape online that there is a competition for a two night stay in Newquay in Cornwall. So..........why not a competition for a two night/weekend stay in one of ...
For starters: I think the photo posted at the very top of this thread is ideal for publicity purposes. Then a simple map showing where on the rail line between Dawlish Warren and Dawlish town this is. X could mark the spot quite literally. Then include a new logo - two black swans looking at each other with what might appear to be a twig or some grass being held between their beaks. On closer ...
Oh Clive that is an absolutely brilliant idea! (just click on the link here to view http://www.ice.org.uk/News-Public-Affairs/ICE-News/Happy-engineers-get-dancing-to-Pharrell-hit ). Dawlish Cllrs? Dawlish Chamber of Commerce? Dawlish Warren Tourism? New Town Centre manager? What say you? and. ........the local secondary school could be involved as well? We need more people studying the ...
Just come back by train from Exeter. At Exeter St. David's a couple with suitcases and from up north (could tell by their accents) got on. Between there and D.Warren I picked up that they were down here going to Torquay for a long weekend break. Anyhow, when we got to Dawlish Warren the fella got up out of his seat and was looking with great interest out to sea. First off I thought he was ...
Thanks for the update Michael.
Any chance of a report back on the Sustrans bid?
