Colin Rutledge liked pmh_74's post in the thread Lynton and Barnstaple - Operations and Development.
Does the '762 club' have members/shareholders or are they merely donors? It seems to me that the project's aims are clear, so the only question is whether they're delivering it, or not. Up-thread was a link to a progress video. I watched it, and...

Lots... Depends which but of normal you want back. For fire-risk reduction purposes in the short term, a week of steady drizzle would probably be best, as it gets all the dry dead stuff damp, which is the short-term problem. For a longer-term...
