This is a great idea and exactly what is needed up and down the country to create jobs and kick start the economy. The government has no money so it can't just start spending money on things like roads, railways and infrastructure except for the projects it has already budgeted for. I don't know if it is government land that is being used here, but one thing the government does have is land and ...

I saw on the news that one arcade owner was threatening to pack up his arcade business. Could this be the end of Harrison's too?

Wtf are you on about MrAngry? First teleportation and tramlines, now something about planets and kids? When I am not cycling or walking, I am driving my car so I already pay to use the roads not that that has any relevance to my original post in the same way that none of your posts seem to either, which was about the problem of combining pedestrians and cyclists into single pathways and the same ...

The reason cyclists still use the roads is because of the problem of pedestrians on cycle paths. Most people do not cycle for leisure - they are either going to or from work, training or trying to get somewhere quickly. There is nothing more annoying to a cyclist than having to keep breaking. Anyone who cycles understands this. It won't be long before there is a serious accident because of this ...

Message to traffic police: get down to Exeter road and give all the cars that are parked on the cycle paths a fine please! As both a cyclist and a pedestrian I believe that the combined cycle and pedestrian paths are simply unworkable. The only thing I can think is that the people who make these decisions have probably never walked or cycled in their entire life. I am fed up with irate cyclists ...

Housing benefit is just one of the ways the government uses tax payers money to prop up house prices and hence residential land prices. I posted about this on another thread. Remove it and landlords would have no choice but to drop rental prices because the demand would drop off a cliff. Using taxpayers money to pay for peoples rents is not the same as paying for school suppliers or groceries as ...

@User 4549 . being a 'reverend' he is probably a doctor of theology or divinity. i'm sure it is not hard to find out what his doctorate is in. I understand that in the old days the only doctors your average peasant would come in contact with (if they had the money) were medical doctors, however someone with the title of 'doctor' is someone with a doctorate which is an academic qualification. It ...

When it used to be Sharifs (not sure of spelling) the pizzas were one of the best around, especially the chilli meat ones. I don't know where you get a decent pizza anymore. Also, I wish they would stop this stupid bogof malarkey and just charge a sensible price in the first place. I was caught out by a bogof in Exeter and paid double what I should have. I had gone to pick them up for my ...

According to the Duck Warden the seagulls have taken 17 black swan eggs to date so far this spring and despite various TV and newspaper reports no one seems to care. I don't understand why seagulls are protected and black swans are not. Seagulls are a pest here in the Dawlish and probably so in most of the UK. Black swans are very rare in the UK and should have a higher protected status than ...
