Got told today by an employee

Yes, saw one train early this morning so I assume that Exeter line is now open but haven't seen anything on tele about it

Good turnout for the Boxing Day dash in Teignmouth.  RNLI ran out of registration forms so more people than normal/expected must have turned up to brave the sea which actually wasn't as cold as I thought it would be - a pleasant 11 deg or thereabouts, apparently warmer than the air temperature.  A few tots of sloe vodka afterwards worked a treat.

@Nelson will you be going or are you ok ?

Update on when the affordable homes will be available. June 2013 for the Bovis units (14 rent and 1 shared ownership) and October 2013 for the Cavanna units (2 rent and 13 shared ownership).

Dawlish Christian Spiritualist Church sends greetings to all, those we know and those we have yet to meet; to those who feel that a sense of purpose is missing from their lives, to encourage them to come and see what spirituality has to offer and be amazed how knowledge of the spirit within can change your attitude to life.  It is not 'A Religion' but a way of life which expands our ability to ...

It is the most ...

Brilliant! (I can't wait for that damn wall to go)

OK, I misunderstood the reference.

Eric Pickles may not have the most glamorous job in Westminster, but he has delivered an early Christmas present for civil liberties campaigners. The last Labour Government changed the law to give local authorities powers, originally intended for the Environment Agency to tackle serious fly-tipping, to go through people’s bins. Now the Secretary of State for Local Government has announced that no ...

We could cross our fingers but I doubt it. Wonder how between 2010/2011 they found the addresses of drivers to chase payment, or didnt they? if not that could have contributed to the £600.000 loss between 2008/2012

Yep totally agree, Dawlish is an amazing place to live.

@Andysport

The once popular Fun to shop at Green- grocers in Dawlish is hopefully to get it`s real Manager back soon! In just over a weeks time the current pretender is I believe seeking new pastures anew.

The fire fighters used 2 hosereel jets and 1 jet to deal with the fire and removed the bales of ...

@Philip Hi there. In a word, Yes, we do have a Town Crier. Havent seen him for a while though. He may be down by the bandstand tonight for the 'Big Switch On' of the Christmas lights.

Point taken, have kept the area surrounding fire free from polystyrene also walls & ceilings in these areas fire boarded, the straw we had thought we wouldn't be using it in close proximty to the fire. Nice to see you all like me that much you'd give me a sending off though :-(

thanks for the warning

If the hedge in question is owned by an individual it may be part of an insurance claim and therefore they may be unable to do anything at present as the insurance companies are rather busy. Leatash = do you know how much council tax the local council get to keep ? local council £200ish Government the rest, Therefore council tax not spent on us, spent on MP's in London (oh and abroad)

I would have voted for her!

I agree Lynne, in the last 7 years it seems to me that every time Teignbridge asks for public opinion and gets it then ignores what the majority say.
