Around Kingswear Marina/Station Car


Park Change Melanie Holman has asked that the following statement be made clear to all, following some confusion and annoyance with the original car park arrangements. The system has been changed so that


you no longer need to get a ticket if you are staying for 1 hour ONLY. If you intend to stay for longer than one hour you WILL need to buy a ticket and display it appropriately for the length of time you are planning your visit. If you overstay the ‘free’ hour then you will be charged. It is not acceptable to pay retrospectively! It is important that care is taken to input the correct registration and that your car is parked within a designated space. When the work is completed on the


quay, it is to be resurfaced and new lines will be added to make the spaces clearer. For those of you who are not aware,


it is possible to register with RingoGo Cashless Parking. This enables cashless parking by mobile telephone, text, or via an application (free download). Ringo also allows extension of the time paid for – the system sends a text giving a ten minute warning of the finish of time paid for and extension can then be made on your phone. Details of Ring- Go are to be found at www.myringgo. co.uk/howitworks Darthaven Marina Location Code: 16073 Darthaven Quay/Kingswear Location Code: 2338


Village Hall Anyone who has left their house over


the last couple of weeks will see that big things have been happening at the village hall. After much agonis- ing it was decided that the windows of the 1925 hall (not the originals) needed replacing. Unfortunately the South Hams planners would not condone UPVC double-glazed units


as these were contrary to what a 1925 building in our conservation area should have, so MUCH more expen- sive powder-coated aluminium units have had to be installed at great cost. Hopefully, this will solve the problem of condensation and temperature loss in the hall, making the heating more effective and less costly to run. Whilst the windows are being fitted the fire prevention systems will also be updated at a cost of £5,000, so the total bill for all repairs will total well over £20,000. When all the work is completed the hall committee intend to hold a village event in order to raise as much money as possible to- wards the project, so watch this space for further information. So, next time you walk past or enter the hall, gaze upon its new windows with wonder and thank your lucky stars that the deterioration of the fabric of the building has been halt- ed. Thanks are due to the excellent people who have brought about this welcome change, “yer blood’s worth bottlin!”


Another Dartmouth Local Kingswear resident Anne See


and her chap, Mike Sandling, who lives mainly in Florida, were on a visit to Dartmouth Massachusetts a few weeks ago and brought back some memen- tos – tourist information and a couple of local newspapers. I was amused to see the tourist information was almost exactly like our own local glossies, and the headlines in the Dartmouth Week and The Chronicle (50 cents) bore a passing resemblance to our own dear

Dartmouth Chronicle: ‘Storm Brings Less Snow Than Anticipated’, not to mention, ‘Missing Gun Frustrates Select Board’. Wonderful stuff!


Calling all Minibus


Drivers! As you know the evening buses between Kingswear and Brixham are driven by volunteers, in order to keep the service going. Recently a number of volunteers have had to give up their roles and the service is now in crisis. Would you have a few hours a week to drive a minibus for the two communi- ties? They’d love you for it, honest. The following message and information come direct from the organiser: ‘In particular, due to changing circum-


stances, the service has lost several of their volunteers in a very short space of time and unless we are able to find more, the service may have to come to an end, as the service is entirely volunteer run. As you know, this would be a great loss to the communities affected, many of whom rely solely on the service to commute from work or to access evening social oppor- tunities. We are therefore urgently trying to recruit volunteers to keep the service on the road, and I was wondering if you might be able to help us to promote these opportunities in some way? Volunteers don’t have to have expe-


rience of driving a minibus before - they just need a D1 entitlement on their drivers’ license and at least 3 years of driving experience. We will provide full training and support. Anyone interested is able to get more information or apply at http:// www.torbaycdt.org.uk/core-work/com- munity-transport/. They are also most welcome to contact me at Torbay Com- munity Development Trust on 01803 212638 or rhiankeyse@torbaycdt.org. uk for a chat about what’s involved.’
