Yes i understand but hes pratically dying and people still slag him off! I understand it isnt right what he did! But like i said dont write it all over the internet! Trying too say hes making up his illness!!!! How dare they. Imagine if this was all your family youd feel the same!!!

We have been told the chip shop in Newton abbot is the best around (eat in as well) so we went over yesterday for lunch 9 of us arrived at 2.03pm only to find it had shut, all the staff were inside, they didn't want our business. Maybe we should have stayed here and walked down the warren. We will try the new one next week.

Nearly £3.75m would also be spent on a ...

Thanks, but i don't think i could get a difinitive answer as it's very complicated. As it pertains to UK and US pensions.

It's actually for a friend of mine, I think she wants to do gifts / childrens clothing

Missed this episode, I have to admit I have enjoyed his travels through devon and was looking forward to this one.  Will catch up with it on iPlayer hopefully.   the closing credits for this series include footage of the steam train at the warren and past the coastguard cottages.

The US National Climate Data Centre is obviously feeling threatened by groundhog Phil because it has apparently published a formal rebuttal saying that groundhog forecasts have not been as accurate as claimed!!  What they haven't done is compare Phil's six week forecast with their own.

I would be Interested in hearing more !

Just out of interest did the site manager say who he was working for, only it dosent look like the transformer had anything to do with building industrial units but was an replacement/upgrade unit for Shutterton Ind Estate installed by Western Power.

regarding the spend spend spend comments on here, you are correct, if in hard times you pull back and stop spending the economy reduces, I believe we should continue to spend though on things such as research and development also supporting export businesses and new inventions, new technologies. On a personal level I believe in hard times like these I think people should really think about how ...

personally I would pay the bill but still question your charges. If you rainwater recycle then your sewage rate is reduced, if you reduce your water usage by flushing loo with rainwater your sewage will go down again. A toilet uses 7- 9 litres per flush average home 200 litres a day from toilet use @ £1.95 per cube = £3.90 a day water plus £2.35 sewage Rainwater electric use £3.12 per month water ...

What a very odd comparison to make; Dawlish, Totnes and the London Borough of Tower Hamlets.  Is there some relevance, I'm presuming you once lived in Tower Hamlets.

My wife wants to join that choir where do they meet ?

I wonder what course of action Tesco's may take (exeter race course)

I haven't seen the car park but I would have thought that £2000 could pay for a lot of cleaning up.

Yeah Ellie's Attic is great (it's on Shutterton Industrial Estate. Turn into the estate, then turn right by Dawlish Carpets. Ellie's Attic is on your left. They've just expanded into the premises next door so much stuff do they have).
