A majestic being that can live to 60 - 70 years of age and does no damage to its environment, respect. A whale is not as small as us. Most whales are bigger than a bus. A whale is not like a fish in the sea. A whale breathes air like you and me. A whale can't walk upon the ground. A whale must swim to get around. A whale is a mammal just like me. But its home is the ...

I assume the £2.9 million pounds is for the purchase of the land, but also includes all the costs of completing the infrastructure - car park, toilets, paths, landscaping, water features, access roads, etc,etc. They do state it is a country park and not just a few fields you can let your dog poop in or ride your motocrosser in, don't they? Anyone know where the specific details of this ...

Nice to see the Red Arrows flying over Dawlish again, brings a little of the good old Dawlish days back again.

@MV - you're certainly being something.

Country park! so one area full of wildlife is bulldozed and concreted over under the banner of building affordable housing for local people, we all know that that is a croc of poop. Then the blood money for building houses that were not needed in the first place is used to build a revenue earning 'country park' for the local council on another area untouched by development. To say that the ...

In a time of supposed 'AUSTERITY' and with cuts to most essential services throughout Teignbridge millions have and are being spent on large scale developments by our councils. The usual excuse is that this money comes from outside the local area and as such we either spend it on some lavish scheme or don't have it. At the end of the day THIS money came, mostly, from hard working taxpayers. ...

Shame they couldn't find a British based firm to carry out the work rather than one based in the Netherlands. (before MV barks up - I am aware they have offices in the U.K.) Is the '50 year project' to just study the cliff areas between Dawlish and Teignmouth and the line between Newton Abott and Exeter? It seems a lot of time for such a project.

Anyone have any views on how the 'redevlopment' has gone in the last 2 and a half years since the £1.5 million was spent on it?

The key word here is 'respondents' that is not everyone who attends or tries to get an appointment at the surgery. It is only the number of people who participated in the survey. Without a number for those who participated it is a little naive to assume the majority of people are happy with the services provided. Also being able to speak to someone at the surgery is not necessarily going to get ...

Glad that the fields at Sandy Lane were not destroyed by this short sighted parking excercise, nice to see the greed of those involved thwarted the use of it by those visiting the event. Powderham had plenty of space, it was an event at their site and they have open their fileds to parking for previous events. It seems more madness than common sense and judgement run the local councils round ...
