Three appliances from Devon and Somerset Fire and Rescue Service attended the incident, which took place at just after midnight this morning ( Sunday 23rd February).
Upon crews arrival there was found to be a small fire in the basement of a 2 storey building. Crews extinguished the fire using 2 breathing apparatus, 1 hose reel jet and one possitive pressure ventilation fan.
The fire, which is believed to be deliberate, resulted in two...
Here at TED we like to be fair. So as we posted up yesterday about all the things women are better at, we thought it only fair to highlight the areas of speciality a man posesses...
#1 – Do It Yourself
Tools – the main item of the male wish list and the reason for ‘tool envy’ the world over. And yes, men are undoubtedly better than women at D.I.Y, just as women are better at applying nail varnish – fact. Even better, it keeps them out of the way too.
#2 – Football
It’s the sport that men live, breathe and dream of. They organise their wedding date around it...
Exeter City fell to a 1-0 defeat against Rochdale at St James Park.
It was a goal by Jamie Allen on the stroke of half-time that proved the difference between the two teams – both teams had more chances to find the net but the visitors travelled back to Lancashire with all three points.
There were two changes for the Grecians from the midweek meeting against Morecambe as an Irish duo led the line to begin. Jimmy Keohane and John O’Flynn were recalled into the starting XI, with Eliot Richards and Tom Nichols primed amongst the subs...
Tongan star Fetu’u Vainikolo will be out to make his mark when Exeter Chiefs tackle Saracens in the Aviva Premiership tomorrow (3.15pm).
The 29-year-old winger is set to make only his second top flight start as he is one of two inclusions Rob Baxter has made to the Chiefs starting XV ahead of their trip to Allianz Park.
Vainikolo – who was signed last summer from Irish side Connacht – comes in for Tom James on the wing, whilst Henry Slade’s inclusion in the centre means Phil Dollman reverts to full-back at the expense of Luke Arscott.
Cowley Hill in Cowley is closed in both directions between the St Andrew's Road junction and the Langford Road junction, because of a landslip and emergency repairs.

Fire crews were called to The Trout Inn, Tiverton, in the early hours of this morning due to a vehicle being on fire in the car park.

The vehicle was severely damaged.
The Police also attended and are now investigating the incident.

#1 – Picking A Fight
Now this is something you girls are way better than men at – starting fights for no apparent reason! Men normally need copious amounts of alcohol before battering their best mates but you women, not only do you not need any booze, you don’t need any words either – just a look is enough to get your aggressive juices flowing!
#2 – Breastfeeding
Childbirth and breastfeeding are definitely two things men cannot do therefore this is a no-brainer when it comes to...
Sleep Easy, a sponsored sleep out event organised by local homelessness charity Exeter YMCA, last year attracted over 180 participants and raised over £30,000.
Adam worked with Exeter YMCA in the lead up to Sleep Easy 2013, even writing a song entitled Sleep Easy with the Exeter YMCA residents.
The song aimed to articulate the issues and prejudices experienced by the young residents who had gone through homelessness and it was debuted at the event itself.
Adam explains: “I was shocked to hear that one in every 100 young people in the UK experience homelessness and...
Exeter Chiefs head coach Rob Baxter believes some tough talking behind the scenes at Sandy Park this week will hopefully have the desired effect as his side look to return to winning ways in the Aviva Premiership against Saracens on Sunday (3.15pm).
After narrow back-to-back home defeats against Northampton Saints and Bath, Baxter admitted he had been left "frustrated" by his side's displays and that certain issues needed to be addressed.
"I don't mind admitting that there has been a huge amount of frustration around the place following the last couple of results," said...
