Strange Road Signs

I do believe they cannot stop anyone flying a drone there, if it’s a legal size, with the correct pilot training where required, you can fly it, it’s an area accessible to the public and they do not own the air space above it, that is controlled by the CAA, only if it’s a restricted area, then the drone won’t fly any way

Only the flash GPS controlled drones won't fly. A cheap one would.

I used to dread those on a motorcycle. The angle was so acute that I had to slow right down and turn the motorcycle at 90 degrees to cross them. In the meanwhile cars behind me were probably wondering what I was doing.

In Dublin naturally.

A friend of mine was touring in Switzerland and came across these diagonal rail lines which were NOT clearly signed...

This is what one of her legs looked like afterwards!

Maybe they can ban the use of drone controllers on the ground, where they do have authority.

Seriously, I'd guess that if necessary a bylaw could prohibit any activity like skate-boarding, pole-vaulting or indeed drone-flying, Dunno if that's the case here. Although they might not be able to prevent someone in a neighbouring area from overflying.

I'm over thinking this. Need coffee.

Any property/land owner can modify the deeds pertaining to the property/land.

I think living in Stuttgart where we have trams of two track gauges (1000mm) and (1485mm) has made me very aware of track in the road; on the road from my village into the city the two gauges are interlaced and set into the road, and cross junctions and on occasion roundabouts at all kinds of awkward angles...

It’s has access to the public, even if they can prohibit drone flying inside the fence though, you could stand by the stile, fly your drone and there’s absolutely nothing they can do to stop you

Why is the rabbit wearing a collar and bow tie?
If you see a rabbit not in formal dress, is it OK to run it over?

Was that the Bunny Club logo many years ago?

Wow, you're right (well, almost). I guess the graphic designer just found it using a web search.

I like the way that cleaning fish was obviously a common problem, for it to be considered serious enough to be specifically mentioned.

And written in stone, too!

Salcombe is a lovely little harbour/village. Fishing must have been the main occupation, but now its just a tourist /holiday village.

Did a reputation for unclean fish cause the collapse of their fishing industry? ;-)

Washing tourists is allowed.
