Priorities. 10 full easyJet total loss crashes a year or the very occasional Bradda Head?

In my experience of chasing debtors the coroners were absolutely useless. They didn’t used to be 30 years ago, but they gradually became more and more useless. It was ok getting execution through the small claims process but then it was a dead end.

If you stopped all cycling in the U.K. an average of 5 people would still be killed on the roads and 50-60 injured, some life changing, every single day. Concentrate on the biggest danger on the roads first

Third party cycle insurance is included in home insurance policies and covers everyone in the household

Was glad to be on the afternoon sailing. Quite calm apart from the bay

So the U.K. is cut off now?

I sometimes use the tram to go from home to the Mines in Laxey as the once a day 13 bus service doesn't run anymore. Last time I was on the 13 the driver was reeling off all the names of the passengers on the route who'd died over the years. I asked to get off at the next stop 😂

Wouldn't that be a good thing?

Is the other reason the screaming children running around? I heard several announcements drifting up the stairs the other evening. I presume the staff will still fetch a drink from the bar? I’ve not bothered on last few trips

Even that isn’t as hard as you’d think. “Beat the BOSS” phones can be quite small and apparently easily inserted.

Just stick me in the grave my wife bought nearly 40 years ago when she was a student nurse. Well not that one, because they buried someone else in it by mistake, but the one they swapped it for. I was dragged up a catholic altar boy and I've been a happy atheist for many years now so the whole church thing would seemshypocritical. Would rather they spent the money on some food and drink as I'll be dead, but I won't know anything about it.

My little garden weather station recorded 30.5°. The Scottish weather guy at Ronaldsway said that it (Ronaldsway) wasn’t the warmest place on the island.

I miss the traffic light guy. Did he pack it in to run a cattery?
