What would the Victorians think of the state of Dawlish today?
When I moved here 20 years ago I could not believe that I had the good fortune to accidentally find Dawlish whilst looking for a new home in Devon. What a charming proud jewel of a seaside town it was. Now only 20 years later the absolute decline that continues to accelerate at a pace whilst the council pillages more money from the citizens and does less and less every year.
If I was a town councillor I believe I would bow my head in shame. I could list all the things that have declined in the town but anyone who lives here is fully aware of what they are.
If the council cannot be bothered with the upkeep of the Town what hope is there for its future?
How good it is to read a post on here that is actually about Dawlish, and not some political stuff about events way outside.
I would probably agree with you BOO HOO but, being housebound these days, I don't get into town to see for myself.
@Daverc - no apology required. Are there no services through the g.p's/NHS that could possibly help you to get out and about?
