Dirty Buggane Posted November 21, 2022 Share Posted November 21, 2022 And I have great confidence in your lack of confidence in Thomas, He's as much use as an ashtray on a motorbike. Unless you want someone to waffle total shite, if you do he's your man. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dirty Buggane Posted November 23, 2022 Share Posted November 23, 2022 Do they not realise the danger they are putting swimmers and lost sea captains in, how will rescue services locate them in all that light clutter. You know one of the reasons they cited for not having festoon lighting. Lifeboats and air sea rescue will think its a rave going on and ignore the area. Will no one think of the swimmers 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Traditionally you would just roll a turd in glitter, but DOI have used mood lighting. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asthehills Posted December 29, 2022 Share Posted December 29, 2022 (edited) Not promenade, but DOI. I can’t drive at the moment but got taken out for a bit this morning. If you want an example of DOI incompetence take a trip out to Patrick from St John’s on the new surface they put down. Was it called Ralumac? Either completely unsuitable for our roads or badly laid - possibly both, but it’s like a rally stage with gravel everywhere and large parts of the new surface completely gone exposing the old surface underneath in what are basically big potholes. I would go as far as to say that the gravel on the bends from the broken up surface is a safety issue.

Dirty Buggane Posted December 29, 2022 Share Posted December 29, 2022 Ah you see this was an English solution to a manx problem. Bound not to work though no doubt we have paid through the nose, with transport costs and accommodation being all extras. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
