Rainbow 1 - your point is? Most people do their big shop out of town, why would local trades people (or their employees) be any different?
Hear hear Ziggy. Spot on.
I found the carnival a bit disappointing to be honest. Not much in it at all, what was there was good, really good some of it but not many taking part this year.
They were grounded in Bournemouth. They were going to do a display there before coming to Dawlish. Bournemouth had terrible weather with their airshow cancelled and the Red Arrows were grounded.
What a shame the weather cut it short. But as usual well organised, good displays. Well done Air Show Committee.
Thanks Lynne, I am aware that DTC are consultees only regarding planning issues. As for why Cllr Vickery is still so keen on that project - perhaps kudos, pet project whatever but I think it's time to move on. Now he and the rest of VFD have taken control of the council they have a brilliant opportunity to really be the voice of Dawlish and act on what they hear.....as long as they listen to ...
Thank you Lynne for keeping TDC on their toes. I know the paviliion is not a done deal, in fact it wasn't so long ago that a feasibility study concluded that it wasn't! Why then is Cllr Vickery, now chair of planning, still so keen? As I've said, same old faces, same old ideas, own agenda etc

I don't know Lynne, I consider myself quite ordinary and average. Not university educated, not earning loads of money, just normal. I've tried having a voice and an opinion but I've been the only one sometimes. Perhaps part of the problem is that those who most need to speak up are to busy getting through the day to day grind of everyday life...
Doh!
