Ciao! C'mon England!

Thank you mouse :) for agreeing with me. In my opinion we should all just try and get the best out of a situation. I doubt Dawlish is half as bad as most places are anyway. I mean anyone been to Westward HO!? :P You have the see, are near Teignmouth,Exeter, Plymouth. Lovely!!!!!! Your not stuck in the polluted air that is London. You are infact part of an ever decreasing minority that live by ...

Now that's a good idea! Councillors can be shelf-stackers....Protheroe can be the trolley boy, Winchester can be store detective, Hockin can be the tannoy and Prowse can get a brand new hat by working on the deli counter....

In response to Kernow's question; It is hoped to have a local produce market starting in Dawlish September/October time.

well they will do anything to get here .. good idea hey.

I have noticed more cars for sale along the Exeter Road area including a large white van taking away 2 or even 3 parking spaces.

Dawlish councillors are apparently backing Sainsburys application, but tell that to the planning officer who is recommending refusal (why? is it possible Tesco has a grubby hand in this with Teignbridge to refuse Sainsburys application?) You still have chance to email with your support for Sainsburys and small office/business park to HClemens@teignbridge.gov.uk e.hockin@tiscali.co.uk

Mouse; you need to get upto date. Traffic Wardens no longer exist. Many road traffic offences (parking for one) have been decriminalised,(no longer a criminal offence). You will no longer get a Fixed Penalty Notice for a normal parking offence (not paying to park, not displaying a valid ticket, not parked properly, etc. You can still receive a FPN from the police if you cause an obstruction, ...

An accident involving a car and a motorcycle has partially blocked the Exeter Road at Dawlish. The accident on the A379 outside Marine Garage is causing disruption to traffic in both directions.

the council dont care about locals, we live in a tourist town aimed at tourists, we just sit down town looking at the fat b*stard tourist scoffing their faces with ice cream and pastys and looking at us like theyve paid there money to be here and we should be out of sight, even are primary food source is geared toward typical mainstream traditional tourists selling absolute unadvetourous crap, ...

Viaduct you have never been in???? ..bet you would if there was still a petrol strike!.. anyways no worries they only like nice customers! Point you make confirms it would be a mistake for any new shop to open in Dawlish, as so many go out of their way to not even step in the door let alone buy!

It is quite clear from some of the postings that some people have an extrodinary imagination. They haven't a clue how the system works and that is because there is little if any transparency in the system to inform them. First people should understand that most of what is going on in politics (not so much at a higher level)is matey, matey. There are funny handshakes to let each other know what ...

The planning committee at Teignbridge District Council is known as the Development Control Committee. It is made up of cllrs who represent wards throughout the district of Teignbridge. The Dawlish Councillor who sits on the Development Control Committee is Mary Mugford e-mail: mmugford@teignbridge.gov.uk Her substitute (just in case she's ill, away etc) is Graham Price. e-mail: ...

email address is: yrossr@parliament.uk

Ageist as well as illiterate and moronic! Calm down! Calm down! Otherwise the sparks from your nylon replica shirt could cause you an injury! Two words Seagull........Exeter City ;-)

We could build at least 20 allotments in Viaducts mouth.He's boring us all to death.Now he calls himself Rainbow,Roy.How many more names will he have? Sad git

crucify them

oh right think i know who you are.

Same here i take the train

A frightened pensioner had an anxious start to Father's Day after witnessing thieves stealing money from a car park ticket machine. Anne James was up at 3am yesterday to make a special Father's Day meal when she saw thieves breaking into the machines in Dawlish Warren.But after realising what was going on Mrs James's first anxious thought was to turn off the lights to make sure the criminals ...

Forget wind farms! Unless you can find a way to make the things cheaper than they are made now, unless you can find someone to install them cheaper than they will now, unless you can get a constant stream of fairly strong wind, you are on a hiding to nothing. Subsidies are there only to encourage the things. When maintenance is required, where will that subsidy come from. Wind farms all over ...

Not in Kernow Ha ha

RE energy and getting older. I don't think I'm bing ageist nor do I think it is unfounded. I think it is a matter of fact that as you get older you have less energy. That doesn't mean you have less mental energy but less physical energy. Did I say that older people (and define older) don't use computers? Most certainly not. Did I say that no older people don't take an active part in Dawlish? ...

If you would like to have a say on where major developments should take place in Teignbridge get yourself along to the Shaftesbury Theatre, Brunswick Place, Dawlish on Tuesday 1st July 2pm-8pm. This event is one of many planned as part of Teignbridge District Council's new Local Development Framework which will shape the future of Teignbridge in terms of what gets built and where.

- The play park is NOT going to vanish. It is only being relocated to another area within the same boundary of the hall. Any information can be obtained from village hall.

see'Dawlish Post' this week for a brillient letter re the closures.

its not as good as "Debbie does Dawlish"

You sound like a bag lady

Voice of Freedom, I have to make a guess as to what you are, just like you have to do, and how do you know what and if I do anything with regard to the Council, well idiot, I have attended council meetings and had discussions with them. HAVE YOU?

how come the flower shop has been selling english tomatoes, and english srawberries are everywhere, not to mention english potatoes and onions.Its strange how Stokes cant seem to find theses.I bought my toms from the flower shop and strawbs elsewhere.i too have been disappointed with Stokes lately.Dont get me wrong, i will always support l;ocal shops rather than supermarkets, but i'm dammed if i ...

it was in the papers enough times and posters around dawlish town, you obviously wasnt looking. doesnt matter now as the group has dispersed.

Its so sad to again see that there is no point in Dawlish trying to achive anything. Lets look at a few things: 1. The work I and a small group worked effortlessy on to get the Millenuim play park at the manor gardens repaired! So ok its now fixed wasnt that a good job despite many attempts where were the people of dawlish coming in there droves to suppourt the replacement of the equipment ...

Slimey and ego?! Why do Dawlish Town Council come to mind with those two words?

Thanks for that it take time to put that information together much appreciated unlike the ignorant mindless "yawn" comment obviously no brain power available to construct such considered feedback!

i think i'm watching you now. Looks great. i hope you're the one with the huge house!!! (thursday 12th)

does anyone actually want tescos in dawlish? or anything else for that matter or would decent transport links be a better option?

An icon of the British coast is making a return to a Devon seaside town after a 20-year absence. Fifteen beach huts have been officially unveiled by Teignbridge Council on the promenade at Dawlish Warren. Eleven are being offered on three-year leases, with three for weekly or daily hire. One hut will be used for storage. It is hoped that the locally-built brightly coloured huts, with views ...

Who would miss the tacky Warren if the sea did claim it back? The only losers would be those that make profit from all the idiots who flock to the beach to burn their skin! So much for the evolution of mankind! Mother nature is just reminding us who is really in charge.

then perhaps rowlands fair shouldnt come for so long, all they do is seem to do is wreck the lawn anyways. thats ony my opinion! be nice to have something different
