Poppies2 (For all at Brook House and Overbrook, Dawlish.) In Flanders fields that May, watered with chlorine tears, frail red blooms appeared as usual, anticipating nothing but their own brevity. Now they weep themselves for a time when they can parade again simply as flowers, beautiful, unadorned. They pray to the sun that we remember well enough to release them for eternity. 3rd November 2013

@Mrs C This is funding that had been available through government grants. "After 2014 there will be no new grants available, for at least 2 years. There is no clarity as yet on what might happen after 2016. The Woodland Trust is demanding that Defra unlock funds to provide interim funding measures as a solution to this serious problem. The good news is that the Government already recognises the ...

On Andrew Marr programme David Cameron said he is a unionist and there is quite a lot of Scottish blood flowing through these viens. Well after the scottish reign of Tony Blair then Gordon Brown from 1997 who should be surprised if their interest is more for North of the border. I notice not too much news time allocated to the protest of the closures.

Can you help?  The Devon Air Ambulance Trust needs a volunteer in Dawlish to service the collection boxes in the town.  If you would like to join our happy team and help keep Devon's two Air Ambulances flying then please email me at R.Oakes@daat.org asap!

You can drop into the Open Daw and pop £1 into the collecting box until November 30th. The Museum needs all the help it can get. Would it not have been possible to move the Museum to the Manor House?

@Paul . if you watched who do you think you are recently, you would have seen that a number of people with ptsd from wwi were kept in "mental institutions" eg seale hayne, exminster.  my father worked at langdon in the 70s and one of the 'patients' at that time had been put there as a youngster as his mum was a single mother.  he became institutionalised and was eventually released into 'care ...

super markets and trago mills free all the year round, better they drop the business tax rate to those of charity shops

FredBasset I agree with your comment 'Instead of keep harping on about building social housing why not take the opposite view, build some decent £500,000 upwards detatched properties for wealthy business types and lets see if we can get them to move their businesses to the area in the hope of gaining some jobs.'  Teignbridge has already asked local businesses in 2003 ...

Good question, try the following link: Why are the English Defence League going to Exeter? To conclude: "They are mobilising their forces from across the UK to demonstrate against the threat from Islam in a city where there are hardly any Muslims, against a local outbreak of FGM for which there is no evidence, and against an academic research centre that no longer exists."

All gone now!

In principle I found myself agreeing with many of the things RB said, although there was no substance to it many of the points he made were valid. This  country has been governed by see saw politics for far to long, each party slating the other, and when either get into power they blame the last for the countrys problems, we somehow allow this to continue !  Some of the partisan comments I read on ...

Thanks for your answer Duckileaks, such a shame to pull it down. To Roberta, I saw the photo in the Gazette also, what a coincidence it should be in there this week!

I guess the government thinks it can tell us we've never had a nuclear accident in an atomic power plant because the fire was in a military reactor, trying to produce tritium for the H-bomb.  So it doesn't count, does it ?

thanks @gamer My laptop (Windows 8) is connected by wifi.  The Digiflex dongle is compatible with it so I'll give it a go.  Thanks very much.
