So the name of the passenger declared by the pilot on said form was the same fictitious name declared by the passenger when challenged? Did Security check the pilot's declaration?

No idea. Was it same or different? We may never know. Or was it comparison of The GAR and what the passenger filled in that gave the game away.

There’s a difference between flag waving and saying that on balance they have done a good job so far (which I think they have). But they are making a mess of the economy related stuff and I’ve pointed that out. I also think they should take a pay cut which is hardly flag waving. I’d suggest some sort of cabin fever has set in here just reading the number of miserable and depressing posts posted by the same people about nothing and then the number of arguments started with anyone who points out the repetitive depressing rubbish. 

Nice bit of gaslighting going on there Larry.

Your grumpiness has been stirred by me challenging you on your turn around on two posts: the first where you ridiculed Rachel Glover's professional experience and the second grovelling and smarmy post that followed her reply.  You showed your true colours there matey and I called you out on your bullshit.

I see no evidence elsewhere of people starting arguments with you for stating an opposing view.  Thats what this place it for - to hear opposing views - and to challenge them.  It's all part of learning innit.

Once more you seem to lack the mental capacity to grasp what some posters have actually said. I did not question her professional experience at all. It was you who claimed I had. I pointed out that she used to work for the lab that does the dog shit DNA tests and that’s why she knew of the existence of the machine now deployed. Not once did I ridicule her professional expertise. Not once. I just pointed out she used to work at the dog shit lab. It was people like you openly trolling views you don't agree with and looking for arguments where they simply don't exist who claimed I had. I then made it very clear that what you had claimed I had said I had not said. That is neither a back track or an apology. It’s correcting deliberate lies posted by other posters. 

You seem to be yet another poster on here rapidly disappearing up their own arse from cabin fever. Hopefully lockdown ends soon. But then again I would guess there’s a hardcore addicted to online moaning from their front room who might not notice when it has.

Starting May the 4th...ironic....we could have built a Death Star for the money they are pissing away on the promenade.

If they did, I could think of a couple of planet sized egos to point it at for starters....

Big gov data dump for people to have a skeet at and make some pretty graphs from

Edit - turns out it isn't all that, its just a spreadsheet of the daily figures. Useful enough I guess.

I have just read the latest article on the newspapers website.

http://www.iomtoday.co.im/article.cfm?id=55458&headline=One further covid-19 death confirmed&sectionIs=news&searchyear=2020y 

My concern is the comment made by ‘Ashy’, wereby of the new cases 2 were Abbotswood linked, one with a travel history, a hospital admission and another one. 
I did think that this island has been under lockdown, no arrivals to the island unless your a star turn, an expert, a key worker or your face fits with the Manx Establishment, and you a letter from the Head of the Civil Service. Has someone come across from the island and brought this back?

There’s a definite Facebook vibe thing going on here tonight.
