  1. Could they not do what the Government does and rent in some "Pay to condemn" surveyors" ? did the church not also do this in the North?. But then again, both failed when the light was shone on them. 🤔
  2. Just had a flier for Eliza's Magic wok through our door., Waverley Terrace, it was plain old Magic Wok, any changes other than the name ?
  3. Aldi stopped mail order last year ☚ī¸
  4. What tw@t named it a "Lisp", bloody hard to prononce when you have a lithp 🤐
  5. Generally souvenir and coffee shops, taxis and coach owners are the ones who benefit from cruise visits, pubs and restaurants very little, side benefit, charity shops do fine from crew members as customers. People employed to promote the visits also benefit.🤔 There was a prog a few years back on Liners to Shetland, essentially saying the returns were poor considering the outlay spent on dredging, berthing upgrades etc, sounds like something our Gov would excell at
  6. What aboot the original Pictish /British they wus here before the Celt comeovers 🤔
  7. Will my Clubman card still work in Victoria Road ? 🤔[asking for an MHK friend]
  8. Is she Lord of Mann or is that just King Chuck 🤔
  9. Would this be a Judy Jolly then 😉

    Government shitspeak we call it, it is disrespectful imho, verbal camouflage. Lessons have not been learned. 🤔 Re The Airport, "Corporatise" is new to me, is that not just shitspeak for privatise?
  11. Thats a subjective choice, i have tried neither, price though is a different matter, not all Local produce is better quality to justify a higher price, Lamb for ex, best I ever bought was NZ lamb. Tesco today had a large Noa's bread display at the entrance , I had a look, saw the price, walked away, I kept obbo on the display as we shopped, I didnt see a single pick up.
  12. It simply is true in my experience, cheese, milk and butter, local always dearer, Manx meats have recently reduced prices, still ahead of imported though. Flour? best quality and price M&S where bread flour flies off of the shelves. Best spuds, price and quality Tesco and COOP.
  13. Sadly home produced goods tend to be more expensive than imported with shipping surcharge 🤔

    I drank in a bar that Josef Karma used, a nice chap but we had a Mate there who some swine had convinced that if you made eye contact with him, you would end up buying his drinks all night, even if you made contact through the mirror behind the bar, ah, such fun we had 😁

    New Tesco.

    Just had a walk through of the new Tesco on Victoria Road, ex Shoprite, they have one of those automatic water misters to keep the fish fresh. Just before you go on, you hear the sound of distant waves and the smell of the sea. When you approach the dairy section, you hear cows mooing and catch the scent of freshly mown grass When you approach the egg shelf, you hear hens cluck and cackle and the air is filled with the pleasing aroma of bacon and eggs frying. The bread section has the enhanced aroma of fresh baking bread The Vegetable Department features the smell of fresh buttered turnips. In future though, I will be buying my Toilet Paper in the COOP .
  19. Word is there is a bit more global warming coming our way for the next few days, thermal culottes or Capri pants folks 🤔
  20. A folded piece of kitchen towel placed in the clipped bag and will give a couple more days acceptable freshness.
  21. I recently tested a wide range of whiskies against a supermarket brand for colour, scent and taste. The final result was that I was escorted out of Lake road Tesco and I'm in front of the Beak on Monday..đŸ˜Ŧ

    My thoughts as well, lots of passing traffic but nowhere handy to stop,cept the pay for carpark, i reckon it will be more a bijou drinkery for the pub crawlers, nice work if you can get it.😋
