I was tempted to phone the Mannin Line today. Found a five pound note, but it was an English one.

Has there ever been anyone on the IOM who hasn't suffererd from erectile disfunticion, diabetes & HIV? Apparently not, about as well manged as promenade politician, no need.

Flatten Peel, nuclear power plant, it's the only way forward.

Learning about people’s lives that are different to your own is important to better understand the world we live in but especially for those making or scrutinising policy. I sometimes wonder if benefits policy is made by Civil Servants who went straight into the service at 18 and have never had to sign on. And the bus service run by people who’ve always had a car or lived in a town or a 9 to 5 job. 
 

I agree 100%, well said.

Highlighting domestic violence, that broken leg is brutal.

Whoever wrote the script for the latest season is to applauded: Catweasel, Alf Garnet & Mr Bean all in the same show!

I heard somebody changed a lightbulb in Ramsey last month, down with this sort of thing.

I'm talking about the councillors knobhead.

I can feel a set of commemorative stamps coming on.

I'm surprised it's not written in crayon.

F**k he was an expert on everything.

Manx Radio must be debating whether to dust off that Alannah Myles record or mothball it for another 12 months.

More adverts, less chat, records & that scrap meal bloke reading "King Orry".

Build the wall, anybody who's ever so much as looked at the mainland, birch them, hang 'em & point at the the ashes. 

"HM, the soul" & Fowler is this a lost episode of Father Ted?

Just phone an Uber driver to pick up/deliver (I'll just get me coat).

For those of us who don't do phone speak what is ADR?

Or hosting Mr Angry phone-ins.

But that's the best bit.

Point taken.

"Slavery was a bad thing, it still is, but there isn't any slavery now in which Britain"

Really, do you live in a bubble? Never heard of traveller tarmac gangs or Vietnamese cannabis farmers, not to mention prostitution?

Not enough Status Quo these days, can't believe the the bike helmet will be gathering dust for another 12 months.

You need to realise that all the restaurants on the IOM have a very limited number of trade suppliers on the IOM

Can you imagine how bad it is now?  No TT, no tourists at all, no birthday parties, no local trade at all except deliveries.  If you want to have any restaurants here after the Great Covid 19 War is over, I suggest support them now.  Order online, they deliver at a distance.  I want to enjoy eating out again.

Stay safe.  Wash your hands now.

I think that might be the best post I've ever seen on here (I did edit it)

Good to hear George Ferguson back on the air, he knows a top Status Quo tune when he hears it.

& Possibly Alannah Myles.

Nuff said.  Bring on the TT.
