I watched it, and I saw a few police in both East The Water and Bideford. It was exciting, and the number of spectators was huge - but I think they've set a precedent. Would it be prudent for someone else to approach the council (if that's the way forward), in view of your ongoing "discussions" with them on other matters?

That's good.

Does any other of the non-North Devon Members hate seeing pictures of the area, because it makes them wish they were there? Or is it just me?

We watched it as well and yes we do wish we could live there part-time when we retire. I would be reluctant to leave where we live now as our location is excellent but we have more friends in North Devon.

Andrew follows cycling but it's more fun when you see them cycle past Graylings fish bar in Fremington. He's looking forward to 2012 Olympics at the velodrome.

Although we're always sorry to leave Devon we're always happy to come home BUT nothing can match that view of Westward Ho! beach as you approach.

It's not only you Richard we hate saying goodbye to Devon when we head for home, but our grandchildren are here and that makes it easier

It didn't really bother me....but that is only because were coming to Devon on Saturday. I wouldn't have minded being here for the ToB but couldn't fit that into our schedule. I had to be at work instead.

We were talking to someone on Saturday who did one GT and liked ND so much they relocated the following spring. So it can be done!

Not sure I'd like an 8hr commute though; there's no local office for me to relocate to plus I have regular meetings which don't play well with remote working  

Maybe if there's another round of redundancies...
