Paul Quine was on the ball he was ok as an MHK .

Firms closing thread.

What policy did Edge oppose ?

A formal alliance of back benchers is one thing but these three are hardly brand leaders two have been sacked for not being fit for purpose. They are band standing pure and simple every MHK probably agrees with some of their suggestions but are they viable and how can they happen. Pointing out what needs doing is easy actually finding a solution is the difficult bit. Criticizing is easy coming up with a workable answer is the hard bit. To of them have had a chance to run a department and improve it and failed. Not something to put on the CV .To come up with an opposition you need to have a good track record.

2012 sums it up perfectly, for most people eating out is a luxury and a special occasion. I have noticed recently that prices have been hiked up in the restaurants I have been in and although perhaps it was essential it discourages people from eating out. The rates are due next month, if you want the discount, and they have gone up as well as most other essential charges. People on a fixed income have to prioritise and eating out comes very low on the list of essentials.

Doug was potentially the largest shareholder and when he pulled out that is when desperation set in, more on the trial in IOM Today , today.

The Stanley in Ramsey has been sold, the new owner has put a piece on FB they are making two apartments on first and second floor and are asking the people of Ramsey for ideas for the ground floor which they hope to let out presumably. I expect H&B have put an embargo on anything booze related. At least it will be an improvement on the current building.

No there has been a big problem all week with the technical side of it that is why there have been so many photos on FB with the results and of course MR have had a daily report as usual.

We have all heard about a bottomless pit well now we apparently have one.

Yes the latest report is quite lengthy on IOM Today, interesting, very.

Edge, Thomas and Christian have formed a little band and are going to take the Government to account on behalf of the public, according to Gawne the Drawl. I thought someone might have commented on the content of prospective or whatever it is called but apparently Manx Forum members don’t indulge in listening to this programme, understandably. These three are probably the biggest losers in the MHK stakes and they really enjoy a good pity party. Their claim to fame is zilch and the effect they will have is similar. They would like other back benchers to join them but I don’t think there will be much of a rush.

I was told there was some movement in the shop Leonidas has taken that would be good great choccies.

It was a great week with lots of talent and enthusiasm especially from the young ones and that is what it is all about showcasing the talent the Island has and the upcoming talent. In no way was it shoddy. From the brass bands to the singing to the spoken word it was fantastic. If you were following it on FB the smiles on the youngsters faces said it all, the young musicians were superb. A very successful festival with a friendly atmosphere the organisers are to be congratulated. The Guild goes from strength to strength.

Why should the Braddan Commissioners be concerned ? It is not their money so it doesn’t really matter or count . Unfortunately this is the way these people think, not just them either the Government seem to have the same careless attitude with other people’s money to the point of spending money that is not there. The younger generations are going to inherit debt every way they turn I truly feel sorry for them. The playground may be great but surely it takes the shine off when you realise that it is going to be worn out and useless before it is paid for.

That was harsh punishing a player because he mistakenly picked the ball up…all in the name of sport 🤨 . That referee should be dumped definitely.
