Just try navigating the Teignbridge website in order to pay the £40 fee for the green bin - it’s a complete nightmare. What idiot thought that one up.

That is absoluely disgraceful. It is almost slave labour, contravening the Human Rights Act. Is there any way that these employees can refuse to sign this contract? It might mean no job, but if they all did it, then the employers might have to change. These homes charge a fortune for residents, and I suspect that very little of this money goes to the carers, who are the most important people in ...

Lib Dems in opposition -We voted against bin tax. Lib Dems in power - keep bin tax and allow price increase. Summary Yet another reason to remember this, next time election comes round

Any more suggestions as to what might be happening to the ducks/swans. @leatash .Have you ever seen receipts of what has been sold or the address that they went too? @Duckileaks . Who owns the gaggle of geese that are free to roam, they never get killed by someones dog? They are not technically wild fowl.  Why is it always the swans that fall foul to dogs/foxes as has been suggested.

Thanks ShyTalk 47

Feeling disappointed I just called Chi and spoke with the owner and they are the freeholder for the property.  The restaurant is NOT going to close. Whatever they have planned the owner stated that they have ...
