@Mwnl you can see the works as they are at the moment in ziggy's photos at https://www.dawlish.com/photo?albumid=765
I did laugh at the People's Republic of South Devon - "Insanity, they say, is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results - a bit like George Osborne's latest budget"
It's just a different way of giving out child tax credit and child benefit. I understand that the amount lost to couples on child tax credit is about £1200 so it's not finding new money. I also understand that both parents have to be working to receive this, not sure if that is full or part time.
It's probably not used because people aren't aware of it. Advertising on facebook doesn't catch everyone. Perhaps some adverts in the local paper, leaflets at the schools, up at the leisure centre? I think a lot of people still think the football club as it was is shut down.
I think what wondering is saying is that the same subject is being posted on separate threads and it feels like it's taking over. I may have a view on the "bedroom tax" and other welfare cuts but constant links with no context is offputting.
There was a protest up in Exeter today against the Bedroom Tax, didn't see you there Brazilnut?
I've just had a letter through from Barratt Homes with the plans attached, although with very tiny print. I see a number of circles with the word issues next to them. I'd love to know how the local doctor's surgery will cope with all these new residents and how Gatehouse primary school will deal with all the traffic as they can't cope now.

Completely agree J3. All these expensive facilities get built and then no-one uses them or can afford to use them. I think a lot of parents thought we'd be getting more out of Red Rock than we do. I'm not quite sure how they justify £21 per hour for the astroturf.
I can't understand it when Wimpy did so well in Dawlish ...
Out of interest where does the stream go on the Secmaton Lane side?
