Oh my This is a terribly grim place. The weather is normally abysmal. The
people are either locals who hate you setting foot in the county or ex
Londoners who bought up all the pokey little cottages which tends to be
ideally stereotypical and everyone hates them for sure. The pubs are
distantly unfriendly to tourists (locals are welcomed) and the
proprieters glare at you as though you come from outer space. The
panorama is nothing, not a patch, on the scale of Snowdonia or most of
beautiful Scotland. Its overrun with with hikers and cars because the
region isn't THAT large. Over rated theres nothing there when you need it
but IS perhaps when you dont, like a crappy roadside disgustingly fatty
burger trailer with overpriced teas except in central Exeter but then I
expect thats how it should be.To cap it all you have Will Hand head local
chief in command senior water dowser and Meteorological Self Healer, Paul
Dawlish from the rabbit Warren, his sidekick, Dave Naylor t'other side of
the Moor often cannot be found, Nick 'the Otter' Gardner always building
a damn for himself and several east & West Dorset types who try to be
part of the cult.

ANY OFFENCE CAUSED IS NOT INTENDED

Well I like it and don't have any of your problems when I go there.

Well, I dont live in the SW, but wish that I did. It has got to be better
than Reading.
Just for info Dave R, I do find your article offensive and not amusing in
the slightest.
Why bother to prodiuce such a rant, when you knew that it would cause
offence to some?
Looks as though you are heading for the 'blocked senders folder'.
Pity, because sometimes you do have something sensible to say regarding the
weather.
