  1. It's like hotels proudly telling you that they have stopped handing out straws with your drinks but then you find that you have to use hundreds of those little plastic butter pots just to butter one slice of toast.
  2. I think it's hilarious us in the Isle of Man pointing the finger at someone who is not paying Capital Gains Tax.
  3. Technically correct, of course, although we are made to pay for a television licence by the UK BBC even if we don't want to watch it, so having taken our money we are entitled to an opinion of their broadcasting.
  4. That's a brilliant film. Just watched it. So nostalgic. A great spot.
  5. But how many storms did we get per year before we started naming them?
  6. When I was on the Manxman a few days ago (one of the rare days it actually sailed) the lounge/catering staff all seemed to be of mainland Europe origin, and they were simply lovely. Very polite and could not do enough for you.
  7. I see that the Verity, presumed sunk in the collision near to Germany was Manx flagged, registered in Douglas.
  8. Can't help wondering what the climate change brigade are thinking about all this steaming about.
  9. It's not just children, it's adults and whole families, people of all ages, too. Perhaps Thundenburg should try a few shifts in the mines there, although she'd probably just sit sulking outside with her Climatet plackard.
  10. Houses were in the Isle of Man long before the TT was even thought of, many still lived in by the same family. Just because the TT has been around for as long as it has doesn't trump that.
  11. 93 year old is great cover for smuggling. They'd never search anyone of that age.
  12. I've seen ladies trading from motorhomes in pull-off rest areas in Germany.
