Green Shoots of Recovery

The only green shoots of recovery I have seen are in our garden, where the snowdrops are a welcome sight and heralds of Spring.

 

Our Prime Minister tells us in Sunday's paper not to look on the gloomy side. Tell that to the steel workers who are  to be made redundant 6000 in total.Will this industry be offered the same support by the government as the banking industry  We read that the Country is officially in recession for the first time since 1991 What has happened to Mr Brown's 2007 promise to deliver 'British jobs for British workers' It made good headlines at the time.

I still cannot see how borrowing from the public purse is going to get us out of trouble.

 

In Dawlish at long last the work is starting on the new footpath at The Brunswick . Motorists will be able to park alongside the  footpath without getting caught by the brambles or getting stung by nettles

 

We hold our Church Community lunch on Wednesday A two course meal for £3.50. Everyone is welcome this is our contribution to   the Credit Crunch.

 

I am still getting letters complaining about the new route for Stagecoach buses. A lot of the elderly people have to walk much further to catch the bus.

A new bus stop has appeared on the A379 just outside Dawlish beside the new car wash. If the wind is in the wrong direction it could cause a few problems. Who sits in their office and decides these things.
