The seaside residents have been very polite this week, waiting for folks to leave once finishing their meal 🙂‍↕️

Managed to snap a photo of them swiping a chip from a plate! 😃🕊️

And now for an (intact) ice cream on the beach, with both of us getting a tan 😎🍦🌊☀️

On the River Dart at the weekend. So beautiful and relaxing. My partner took these pics. He did most of the rowing. We stopped a few times for skinnydips and for a picnic lunch. #Devon #RiverDart #Totnes

A white man (me) wearing sunglasses, a pale cap and navy shorts is sat with his feet up in an inflatable boat. It's sunny, and behind the man we see the River Dart, lined with trees and looking beautiful. The sky is pale blue and cloudless.A white man (me) wearing sunglasses, a pale cap and navy shorts is sat with his feet up in an inflatable boat. He's holding an oar. Beside him there's a yellow bag.

National Trust Saltram, Devon

Orangery built in 1773 framed by one of several magnificent old Sweet Chestnuts (Castanea sativa) to be found in the gardens.

Most of the image is taken up by a large horse chestnut tree. Its trunk is to the right and the branches and leaves fall either side. between the trunk and branches in the the centre is the facade of a white building. Seven of eight stone pillars are visible, with the doorway in the centre and floor to ceiling windows with small panes in between the pillars. In front of the orangery stand two potted orange trees. Below the tree is a native wild flower meadow and in the border several exotic plants.

We tried to take a decent photo of our triple ice creams on the beach while sitting in our deck chairs but the sun had other intentions 😂 ☀️🍦⛱️

Exeterissä, Devonissa evakuoitiin eläinpuisto, vierailijat suljettiin latoon, mestoilla oli aseellistettuja vartijoita yms., koska kaksi karhua murtautui aitauksistaan.

...syömään hunajaa. Karhut olivat menneet puiston ruokavarastoon ja syöneet mielettömät määrät hunajaa.

Reform councillors reported to police by colleague

Infighting in the Reform UK party in Devon has seen two county councillors and an election agent reported to police by a colleague over election expenses.

Neil Stevens and his brother Tony were elected for Reform in May and documents seen by the BBC allege Neil Stevens spent about £170 more than the campaign spending limit.

This was reported to police by Ed Hill, who was also elected for Reform in May and was the chairman of the Exeter branch but was removed from the post for what the party says was bringing it “into disrepute”.

@ShadowPlay this might be the one you read :)

Reform UK councillor reported to police for potential election expenses breach

A REFORM UK member has been reported to police for potentially breaching election campaign spending limits.

Neil Stevens, who won the Alphington and Cowick seat in May’s Devon County Council elections by just 72 votes, has been reported by a fellow Reform UK councillor for the alleged overspend, and for a suspected false election expenses return submission.
