1. Worm
Charming
The village of Blackawton was once again the centre of every worm charmer's
universe last Sunday. A German Film Crew had a great time,
children from Chernobyl competed, and lot of beer was drunk.
You simply must go next year? Over £5,000 pounds was
raised for Devon Air Ambulance, jolly well done chaps!!

New Guide to local food
The 2008 Love the
Flavour Guide is published by Food and Drink Devon as a
result of South Hams Food & Drink Association and the South
Devon and Dartmoor Food Group coming together. The Guide
offers the very best of the region’s products and
hospitality with 115 companies featured that either produce
or use products originating from South Devon, including some
50 great places to eat out that use quality, local food and
drink produce.
From specialist bakeries, purveyors of finest South Devon
meats, poultry, game and fresh fish to delicatessens, makers
of luxury ice creams, sauces and snacks, fruit growers and
producers of fine wines, beers and beverages, the Guide has
it all! Member shops that sell or home deliver local
products also feature.
Get your copy from the
Dartmouth Tourist Information Centre in Mayors Avenue car
park? Or from Browns Hotel, the Dart Marina or The Royal
Castle Hotel.
5. The most expensive house in
Dartmouth?
With a price tag of "offers in excess of 4 million pounds "
is this the most expensive house in Dartmouth? The
Dartmouth dot TV crew have had a private preview, and we all
agreed it would be a spiffing place to live. You can
see the details and history directly by
clicking here
but wait a minute for the brochure to load.
With well over 6,000 square feet and a private mooring, this
is a truly spectacular house with a lot of history behind
it.

Gallants Bower
If you go down to the
woods today, you're sure of a big surprise. Well not
quite, you won't meet any Teddy Bears, but you will see more
bluebells than you could possibly imagine. It's only a
5 minute walk from where you can park your car. If you
don't know where it is, pop into the Tourist Information
Centre, they will help you, oh and buy a walks leaflet
whilst you are there?
