Very comprehensive, John. Thank you.

Thanks Wooley - that was my view on it.

From the MR web-page: The Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents has applauded the ten year targets set by the Manx Government, to reduce the toll on Island roads. Who knew we had toll roads on the Island?

Yes- it was corrected on the website, eventually. But the same mistake was repeated on the broadcast news at 11 pm, and then again at midnight.(Plus another glaring mistake, when the wrong sound bite was played, and the girl didn't even appear to notice.)

Yes,thanks, Hammy. That was how it was originally, both on air,and on the web page. They have since corrected it on the web page. However, she still read the incorrect version on the 11pm news. (this is because it is pre-recorded, so it wasn't corrected)

From MR, this evening: MHK backs new plan for silt disposal A lack of annual maintenance would have prevented the build up of Peel harbour.

Do Buffoons have balls?

I suppose we, the taxpayers, should be grateful that he went somewhere cold for his Summer Hols this year. Otherwise, he might have charged a new pair of Speedos to his expense account. (I don't want to be accused of aiding and abetting a Budgie Smuggler)

And David Callister?

Yes - I agree, Sultan. Surely Ms Edge's partner is free to say whatever he likes about Rob Edward, and doesn't necessitate an attack by him on his fellow MHK? This smacks of yet another instance of Rob Edward attempting to silence anyone who shows him up for the prat that he is, and also attempting to discredit Ms Edge, in order to weaken her position if she stands against him in the next election. Rob - we know you read these posts - so why not publish a copy of that apology which was sent to all Tynwald members? So that we know it is not just a figment of your imagination, in your constant quest for self-promotion?

What is the name of the 4-hour show that your relative presents, please? (I can't recall it)

I dunno, Glad - whenever I have visitors from the UK, I DO get embarrassed by the annoying, distracting and amateurish standards of Our Nation's Station.

.... and it will definitely be more than a Hutch.

Sold to Soul?

I wonder if Bandwagon-Billy will be allowed to use his hosepipe (pun intended) to top-up his hot-tub?
