The Voice of Reason Posted January 3, 2019 Share Posted January 3, 2019 (edited) Maybe not just un PC but insulting to those who had to deal with the consequences of the raid on the “Fairy Cottage “ (ha ha v funny). You are indeed what you are. Edited January 3, 2019 by The Voice of Reason 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2112 Posted January 6, 2019 Share Posted January 6, 2019 Another article on the Nations Propaganda Mouthpiece, about a Channel 5 feature which featured the IOM, with a contribution from Manx National Hemorage. https://www.manxradio.com/news/isle-of-man-news/island-featured-on-channel-5-series/ Years ago the tourist board would trumpet in advance any ‘good’ news Manx shows, and we would be encouraged to defend the island like keyboard warriors against aggressive or negative tv shows. Someone from the Starship Enterprise ‘tourism’posted this today - after the shows broadcast. Do the tourist department of DED only work 9-5, 5 day week?? Still I would love to hear Skelly bullshit publicity calculator whir into action Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That must be about £2000 worth of damage, judging by installation costs. I wonder if they came with an NHBC warranty, although come to think of it I don't think that covers the roof blowing off, as residents of a certain Dandara estate in Kirk Michael will no doubt confirm. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holte End Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 (edited) It ok the real cost of the not maintenance free fairy houses was only £11,000.00 that should stop the moaning and complaining from people on here. But it does beg the other question who received the other £15,000.00 for the promotion ? Edited January 12, 2019 by Holte End Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Lurker Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 Just visited Dhoon Glen with the family today see the fairy houses (only found one.) The car park was full and lots of people in the Glen. Last weekend we went to Bradda and I’ve never seen as many people there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
