Douglas Prom Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 Probably a good job they demolished it when they did. Today some clown would try and get it registered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madmanx90 Posted March 26, 2017 Author Share Posted March 26, 2017 It definitely wasn't a pretty building at all. I seem to remember going to watch some wrestling in there once anyone remember that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably Phil Kermode nuzzling a fat mans anus in a leotard. I can never get an airport taxi off him to this day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zammo Maguire Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 5 Summerland things 1. The octagonal pool table 2. Massive New Years Eve parties on the Piazza Level 3. The whole clothes basket/conveyor thing in the aquadrome 4. The Cave (and the cave thread on here) 5. The inflatable water slide in the aquadrome.

The whole clothes basket/conveyor thing in the aquadrome 4. The Cave (and the cave thread on here) 5. The inflatable water slide in the aquadrome. It was a magical place. Roller skating was my thing, down in the basement, but everything was there. The idea was brilliant and as it says in the video, way ahead of its time. Perhas an even bigger complex could be built using that whole area and incorporate a ski slope even. It seems from the video that there were plans for a similar place that included a TT museum. It's crazy that the Isle of Man does not have the biggest best motorcycle museum in the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IOMRS97 Posted March 27, 2017 Share Posted March 27, 2017 I think I may have got it wrong. The first time I went into Summerland was during the fire when everyone else was trying to get out... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for a bike museum, why would we have one ? Pie in the sky fella. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
