I saw a kid (my definition - someone who had the overall look of a child under the age of sixteen, but over the age of 10 years) on the Cove beach with a black widow catapult in hand. For those that do not know what a black widow catapult is:- ...

You can lead a horse to water but you cannot make it drink.

So after contacting the town council and them contacting sw water this is the result as of the 06th August 2017. Not surprised! This is an important access point for those that wish to use the path. The only other route, without trespassing, is diagonally across the field and an extended walk through an  overgrown lane, that some would find difficult to navigate. Dawlish is a ...

@JD2017 -you are incorrect in your statement that placing no against the questrions would mean that you did not want a play park on the lawn. it merely stated that you did not want it in the specified locations on the lawn. again, as i seem to be repeating myself for some reason...the questionaire did not ask the most specific question that was...do you want a play park on 'the lawn'? In my ...

@leatash ... not based on a questionnaire that only asked where on the lawn and not, do you want a play park on the lawn? It is not Dawlish councils right to put out a questionnaire that does not allow the people of Dawlish a fair and balanced set of questions for the issue of this play park.

@leatash - you seem to be missing the point that not one question asked if anyone wanted a play park on the lawn. I am in favour of true democracy, but the basis for this play park is on a one sided set of questions that did not let those who took part answer that they did NOT want it. I and several others who DID take part catagorically put in the comments section of several questions ...

Anyone know how to intiate a parish poll. If the only way to put a stop to the nonsense of the play park on the Lawn is to start this process I would like to know what is involved and how it can be initiated. It certainly worked on the issue of the Manor House !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have checked on the internet and am no wiser. ...

I see no valid reason why the town council should even be discussing  funding for this play park until the residents of Dawlish can say yes/no to this. The survey was a sham and not one question asked if it was even wanted on The Lawn, just WHERE on The Lawn. Those who stated that it was NOT wanted on The Lawn could only put their feelings in the comments section of the one sided questions. ...

Interesting read from 2013 about Germany and the e.u. http://www.ditchley.co.uk/conferences/past-programme/2010-2019/2013/germanys-role-in-the-eu1

I think the statement 'will increase trade for the town centre businesses' has been a little over used in Dawlish this last year or 2. Over a million spent on a dirty stained NEW pavement to replace the old concrete slabs, but now look dirtier than the origninal slabs.....and more business due to the new layout of the high street, ...I think not.... oh!, definetly less parking on the high street. ...
