@Fred I agree with some of what you say, but like many many others in this town, I am not Dawlish born and bred, and although I have fully supported carnival week every year since moving here, and participating as well, I take exception to what Maggie Farley said in her address in the programme. That has really turned me off of them so this forum gives me and others a chance to get things ...
@Michael. Thank you for clearing that up. HAve just looked at the TC so the fault does lie with CIC. I have just edited my posting above.
@Mcjrpc It's a shame no-one thought of looking at thCouncil events diary a few weeks ago before all this came out in the open. It is possible that the Carnival was mentioned but removed when Ms Farley opened her mouth. Edit. See response from Michael Clayson 3 below this.
@Mcjrpc 'INFAMY, INFAMY, THEY'V'E ALL GOT IT IN FOR ME', she cried. What a carry on! Excellent and a good film also.
@Lynne . Sorry, but I am not on Facebook. No disrespect to you or others that are, but I do not like their TOC's and totally against them. @Brazilnut . Thanks.
Any truth in the rumour that last nights entrants who made a visit to the Brunswick were disqualified, or is it just a rumour?
@Lynne . Nice one. After reading Ms Farley's address in the carnival programme, the only events that I will be supporting (until she steps down or leaves) are the Air Show and Party in the Park. At least with PitP you know that the money does go to a worthwhile cause, namely the Poppy Appeal. PS. No, I am not Dawlish born & bred but I have supported the carnival ...
Yes, I do visit the Warren & Bird Hide , while dodging the dog poo that hasn't been picked up. LOL.
@Tracy . There was a Photogrphy Shop in Park Road next to Breaking Wind. He sold matted & framed prints and greetings cards of is photos. Other various items were on sale also. It didnt last long.
Dog detector vans and SaS is a great idea. Soon get the little shi poo machines off the streets and make it safe to walk across a nice grassy field without having to look down all the time to see what you are treading in.
