Same here, a person who goes the extra mile to show he cares.

Hi Guys My wife and I have visited Dawlish for the last four years and think it is a great place. Does anyone know if there is anything happening on the Lawn during the period 4th July till 18th July

Innocence (Dedicated to those who are not personally responsible. Without you, this would not be possible. ) I have caught tears in my mouth, washed in the dust of the dead, burned the grass in the meadows, watched the fires spread. I was told by my leaders to kill in my country’s fight. Crimes are defined by victors, We say what’s right. I flew into a building to tear apart people’s lives. I ...

Thanks for the information mate, I've checked out that link and there seems to be quite a lot of vacancies around and about. Cheers, much appreciated pal.

Only because the lib dems have been selling the family silver, and they ripped off Wally to the tune of £20,000 for a postage size piece of land. And as TDC valuer admits, it was equivalant to £250,000 a acre. That is what I call well done TDC.

The cost of running Teignbridge Council has risen by just £3,000 as councillors share cars and hunt for bargains to save tax payers money.

In the same period, Torbay Council's bill rose by £19,700. Teignbridge Council leader Alan Connett ...

New Dawlish Town boss Jeff Evans believes taking charge of the Toolstation Premier club will be the biggest challenge in his 30-year managerial career. Bristol-based Evans was confirmed as the new manager at Sandy Lane yesterday after meeting the club's committee and players on Tuesday night. He said he had even shelved retirement plans to accept the challenge of building on the Seasiders' ...

What happens if the sea does go as high as they say it will? The sea levels won't rise by that much for at least another 100 years. By then, our descendents will all be travelling on longer journeys, for example to get to the tropical beach holiday destination The Orkneys, aboard magnetically levitated trains. Short journeys, e.g. to pick up the pension from the Red Rock Post Office, will be via ...

There's your answer Dawlishdame. He will never admit to being wrong - it's an unfortunate trait in many of his generation. And as for the irony of the fairytale spreading, libelous **** daring to ask others for evidence to back up their claims, well it's probably gone straight over the head of the saddo.

TRANSPORT campaigners have called for an alternative to the Westcountry's vulnerable coastal rail track after the Government's warning on rising sea levels. Train journeys past the crumbling Dawlish sea wall in South Devon on the region's mainline are routinely blighted by extreme storms and high tides. Following predictions that sea levels in the Westcountry could rise by 40cm (16in) by the ...

I am afraid I am on Alma's side and I ain't no sympathising pensioner...THIS COUNTRY IS GOING MAD...Let's give the chav's the keys to the cities and anyone who retaliates against them LOCK THEM UP! MADNESS. When I was a boy (here we go), we never dreamed of back chatting our elders, nevermind intimidating them. This culture we have needs to be stamped on with a zero tolerance by the authorities.

I hope you will all want to join me in passing on our condolences to the family of Brian Heath, chairman of the Dawlish Carnival. Brian sadly passed away at the weekend.

LOVING tributes have been paid to the chairman of one of Devon's biggest summer festivals after he lost his battle with cancer.

Affectionately known as 'grandad' to carnival royalty, Mr Heath played a key role in putting on the carnival's air show which draws thousands of visitors to ...

It has emerged that one of the four cygnets born to the famous black swans of Dawlish this year owes its life to waterfowl warden Derek Porter, who gave the young swan the kiss of life after it almost drowned. Derek, 49, was clearing out the chick pen at the bird enclosure on the Brook last month when someone knocked on the window saying the seven-week-old cygnet was in trouble. Further upstream ...

More chip shops too lol!

Perhaps one of the posters who hold strong views should offer themselves as a benevolent dictator. Do as the parties do: promise anything that sounds good, the closer to meaningless marketing bullshit the better. (e.g. Vote "for change" or "a better tomorrow" or "tax reform" or "a bright future" or "a new Britain") When you get in, continue to do as the parties do, i.e. do as you please. What's ...

From a source that I never expected.....Wally dropped his wallet - boom, boom.

Well done to Paula Black, who won the Totnes Rural Division for the Green Party.

I tried to raffle a car many years ago and was advised that it was illegal as i didnt have a GAMING license, do these people have such a license and if not then how can they get away with this raffle?

E's out canvasing! You know, when they come knocking on your door in the hope you will not tell them to fkuc off.

Busy catching up with the news, I see that one that surprisingly slipped through the net on here is the praise that Wally Protheroe has received for raising over £2000 for charity. I quote: Retired Mayor of Dawlish Wally Protheroe has been praised by a charity for raising more than £2,000. Cllr Protheroe nominated The Helen Foundation as his charity of choice for his year of office. Set up in ...

HALF-TERM beach safety at Teignmouth and Dawlish now is the hands of RNLI lifeguard teams. The charity is now providing safety cover at Teignmouth and Dawlish Warren after the service was handed over by Teignbridge Council in March. Teams started on Saturday and are to patrol each beach every day from 10am until 6pm during the half-term school holiday. The lifeguards will patrol the beaches on ...

Roy, So you have now moved away from your original comment, and taken it nationally LOL, they may be useful in large towns and cities but have proved useless/unnecessary here in Dawlish

Thank You for your comments. Much appreciated. MARNE (Mike McCabe)

Excellent, Authorburch. Thanks for posting. I won't fall out with you over form or structure. poem link Don

apparently the delay is due to tesco taking legal action based on our beloved councillors not being told that a refusal had been given to another supermarket (Somerfield) back in 2006 to build on land at Shutterton Bridge, i remember this it looked good primary school, nursing home, pub, social housing etc. this would have been of benift to everyone in the area. i would like the supermarket at ...
