I personally have a bit of an issue with the idea of a statue in Dawlish. Bill would've been the first to remind people that he was not alone on Sword Beach. There are other surviving Normandy veterans in the town also and many more relatives and friends of those who were there and have since passed on.

2012 Aid: £650m to Pakistan (a nuclear power), £1bn to India (a nuclear power with its own space programme) out of a total overseas aid programme of £12bn. The current deficit? £12bn!!!

I couldn't agree with you more! Thanks Nelson & Northerner. We have made a pledge so we will try to make it happen. All of the money we raised so far (which the complainant had nothing to do with!) cannot be used.

Re the Telegraph article. I think that's the first time I've seen 'get rid of worms' and 'good garden husbandry' in the same sentence!
They are people too! Just talk to them. Ask about their kids, work, private life, hobbies etc. I had one on the phone for 45 minutes before they finally hung up on me! Haven't had any calls since. ;-))
Thought that shop was now something to do with Oaklands or Ratcliffe School(s)?
Thanks Andy Too tight to get a static in there but the tourer for £250 sounds interesting. Will go have a look see.
