EXETER CITY's immaculate away run continued as goals from Ollie Watkins and Jake Taylor saw off Yeovil Town at Huish Park.
City made three changes for this one, with Jordan Moore-Taylor back in the starting line-up and taking the captain's armband once again.

I have longed to spend the night in a treehouse ever since Enid Blyton captured my imagination with The Faraway Tree; a magical tree inhabited by fairy-folk, standing in the middle of the Enchanted Wood. Its topmost branches lead to ever-changing magical lands above the swirling clouds. When I discovered Deer Park Country House luxury treehouse , it went straight to the top of my wish list.
As you drive through the quintessentially British grounds, the first thing that hits you is the serenity. The hustle and bustle of the town faded away, only to be replaced with chirping birds...
The 1st Lym Valley Scout group had a wonderful morning down at Seaton Wetlands on March 20, as part of their weekend adventure.
After camping at Seaton Scout hut, the Scouts walked to Seaton Wetlands nature reserve to undertake an orienteering challenge. They worked together to navigate their way around Colyford Common and back to the Wetlands Reed Base.
After a well-earned picnic lunch the group spent some time cleaning the windows on three of the bird hides. Visitors to the Wetlands will now get an even better view of the wildlife on site thanks to the Scouts.

Due to go live later this April, the outcome of the trial is much anticipated.
Mr Bradshaw, who has long been a supporter of Lightfoot and its sister business Ashwoods, a leading manufacturer of innovative electric motors, met Mark Roberts...
