I fully support webmaster in this, I don't have any issues with the 'language' but flaming isn't acceptable and achieves precisely nothing in a forum intended for discussing local issues. I am a member of other international forums where quite serious 'abuse' takes place but these are totally different, mainly technical forums, but this isn't acceptable in a forum where local people discuss local ...

A driver is supposed to remain at the scene of such an incident, however: http://www.direct.gov.uk/en/TravelAndTransport/Highwaycode/DG_069853 [Laws HA 1835 sect 72, R(S)A 1984, sect 129(5)] Dogs. Do not let a dog out on the road on its own. Keep it on a short lead when walking on the pavement, road or path shared with cyclists or horse riders. Every year in the UK there are numerous road ...

Do not post any material which is knowingly false and/or defamatory, inaccurate, abusive, vulgar, hateful, harassing, obscene, profane, sexually oriented, threatening, invasive of a person's privacy, or otherwise violative of any law. So which of these 'rules' has Rainbow1 transgressed??? Surely we have better things to discuss than whether a poster uses too much slang or can't spell. One ...

Planning applications are made so in the event that someone wishes to object then they can do so. As Brazilnut says, so what?? if you object to this application then make your objection to the Planning authority concerned.

£670 pm for a 1bed flat IN DAWLISH!!!, no wonder people are leaving this area. When is the 'affordable' housing being built.

Add that to the Two Billion spent on the War on Libya http://www.guardian.co.uk/politics/2011/sep/25/libya-conflict-uk-defence-bill it is clear that the govt isn't really short of money, just short of money to spend in the UK. I can never understand the demand for weekly bin collections, we have weekly collections, one week the black bin next week the green bin. How can we 'return' to something ...

Might be of interest, next Tuesday's BBC File on Four (Radio 4) 20:00 is on the new planning laws proposed for the UK. Usually a well balanced and informative programme, am sure it will be of interest to anyone concerned about these new proposals.

Summed up perfectly leatash. All I've heard since moving here is Dawlish needs regeneration, yet as soon as anyone dare to suggest that we have new houses and heaven forbid a decent Supermarket then it's "let's stay the way we are". Just imagine the outcry if Dawlish consisted of 100 dwellings and someone suggested it should be expanded to 200 dwellings!!! Dawlish is residential, I wouldn't expect ...

Locked Bins
25 Sep 2011

I use the re-cycling bins off Exeter road, on the path to Coastguard Cottages, and noticed today that most of the bins on this site have been padlocked, does anyone know why??

You understand my point exactly, nothing has changed, the nonsense about 'greenbelt' land which was always going to be built on anyway has now gone and the planners are now saying lets put all options on the table, you can't have it both ways. This is a 'draft' policy, go to this link where you can download the whole or summary documents and submit your comments and objections, it isn't law it is ...
