Not seen the seal yet but there were several dolphins off Parson and the Clerk a couple of weeks ago.

It's probably no coincidence that every time I go past Gay's Creamery it's packed with customers - it's open til 9pm and 7 days a week.  Meanwhile this summer I've passed Witches Bowl, Reflections and Dabbling Duck in the afternoon and they've been shut.  I haven't figured out if they've closed down or open and close when they feel like it.

I don't like to see sprawling housing estates but eighty years ago the people of Dawlish probably felt the same about the housing most of us currently live in - anyone seen th photos of Dawlish before the trees were chopped down to make way for all the housing up to East Cliff and West Cliff Roads.  That's unfortunately how it is. If Mr Weeks doesn't farm his land he'd surely be rubbing his ...

Sorry, I misread it in the first place for Lowther, Petherick and Petherick.  You were right to be confused.

It would be good to see some younger faces at the services, they're the ones to carry the torch into the future.  Interesting to learn that Paul Holman's brother later went on to marry Vivien Leigh.

Yep, it was closing in at this very minute.

That's as maybe Wondering.  Much is made of the North/South divide but having experienced all three locations, the South West gets a very bad deal.   If it didn't have its landscape it'd be even further down the pile.

Thanks very much, I'll do that.  (And much easier too!)

Q.E.D.

I think you got quite an unkind response.   We don't all click on Events looking for something to do but if it's flagged up here, it might jog somebody.   It was hardly a sin whoever your god is or isn't.

I think you're mistaken, no-one has speculated about the inside.

I understand life expectancy for men is lower.  One out, one in...

Thanks very much Stephen15 but I used an iPhone.  Thought there might be a way on the site like we can use bold, underline, italics etc.   Have noticed it on other posts from time to time, maybe it's a compatibility thing.

Giving a grant for the float is like giving a grant to reupholster the sofas on the Titanic.  I wonder if Fred Bassett, Burnside etc will be calling for their resignations.

Sludge - isn't that a Farrow & Ball colour?

"Not criticising...but..." Not nice.

Thank you, could do with a good foot rub.

Beauties they were too.
