Another home defeat for the Grecians

Report: Exeter City 0 Southend Utd 2

Exeter City fell to their fourth-consecutive defeat in all competitions as they disappointingly went down by a 2-0 scoreline at home to Southend United.

Goals from Cauley Woodrow and Kevan Hurst were the difference at SJP as the Grecians dropped to tenth in the League 2 ladder.

The Shrimpers had won each of their previous two fixtures by three goals to nil, with a home win over Mansfield and an FA Cup victory at Morecambe Phil Brown’s side’s two results in the month of November so far.

Preview: Exeter City v Hartlepool

Questions about ‘after the Lord Mayor’s show’ have been bandied around the Cat & Fiddle with regularity this week, and have been batted aside every time.

While the City fans have been rightfully enjoying the feel-good factor that comes about with a convincing derby win, the focus of the players and management since Monday morning has been to make sure that the supporters have another three points to gloat about for the following week.

The not-insubstantial proposition that stands in Exeter City’s way is Hartlepool United, who...

Feng Shui - What is it really all about?

Authored by Sue Holmes
Posted: Thu, 06/27/2013 - 9:44pm

Ever since I began studying Feng Shui back in the early 90s, I noticed that there seems to be a great deal of misinformation and ignorance about it. Although many articles have already been written on the subject, some people still think Feng Shui is about superstition, decorating a building with Chinese ornaments, ‘impractical mumbo jumbo’ and only relevant to Chinese culture. Over the years, it has been commercially exploited, with the sale of so-called ‘lucky’ trinkets, and this has given it a somewhat shallow reputation. However, this is a small and tarnished fraction of the full...

We are over two months into the Government's Green Deal loan scheme. Is it an affordable way for householders to improve the energy efficiency of their homes and save money or will it be a bureaucratic white elephant?

The Green Deal is a government initiative to encourage home owners to install energy-saving measures in their homes. These loans are paid back through the savings made on your energy bills over a maximum of 25 years. The Green Deal loan is attached to your property so if you move before the loan has been paid off; it will pass on to the new owner or tenant.

Fire Kills campaign launches powerful new video message

A young boy explores the burnt-out shell of his former home, examines his old toys, and a clock, then asks you to make a life-saving promise this Easter - to test your smoke alarm and keep your loved ones safe from fire.

This is the story of a new Fire Kills online video.

Devon & Somerset Fire Service urges students to stay safe

As students begin their university and college terms this month, they are very likely to be preoccupied with new timetables and meeting new and old friends, rather than worrying about domestic duties such as cleaning rotas, bills or crucially, fire safety.

When living away from home, whether in shared or rented accommodation for the very first time, it’s easy to get caught up in the excitement of student life. Devon & Somerset Fire & Rescue Service are urging all students to take some time to think about fire safety and to take personal responsibility for protecting...
