Neighbours speak of shock
Neighbours speak of shock after car crashes into house and explodes into flames
The stolen car crashed into a side of a house on Alderminster Road in Mount Nod last night (June 13)
“The aftermath shows the charred flames which damaged the green space at the front of the house, plus the front window unsecure with the crippled bricks laying on the front porch, curating mess and dust.”

“Genuinely deprived people
“Genuinely deprived people probably can’t afford a car in the first place!”
Which, for me is the essence of the Drivers and their Problems thread.
“Provide my exclusive luxury facility at a bargain basement price” is what I hear in the Woolacoombe story.
All that said, if you didn’t want to be poorer, for your local authority to have less money, why did you vote for Brexit? (56.5% in Cornwall)
Visitors slam ‘extortionate’
Visitors slam ‘extortionate’ parking charges at popular Devon beach (Wollacoombe- also ‘won’t return’ klaxon)
The fees have received mixed reviews with one calling the trip a ‘waste of time’
User Charley M said the parking charge was extortionate. She commented on June 5: “Car parking… £10 for 1 hour?! We had no other choice but to pay it.
“Daylight robbery. We were taking little one for her first play in the sand, turns out she isn’t a beach babe! Otherwise we would have stayed longer. Should have gone to wales. Waste of time- won’t visit again.”
Another user, Kelvinjohn agreed that the parking charges were ‘unacceptable’. They said: “Car parking charges have become extortionate and really are a rip off despite their contributions to RNLI and beach maintenance. Ten pounds to park a car for a day or an hour is unacceptable.” (See picture of “unacceptable” charges.)

Cornwall ‘cash cow’ car park charge increases spark rebellion in Penzance
