Well here's C19th Century Ramsey:

Yes, but not the part of Ramsey that is being discussed, South Ramsey and the clearance in the 1960’s. You can see the area of South Ramsey in the background. But by the 1960’s it was rank, falling down, insanitary, slums. It was never a tourist attraction, or destination, or the centre of town. 

Anyone going from Queens Pier to the centre would have gone along the prom or Waterloo Road.

I fully support this exciting proposal.  The island desperately needs a 24 hour access marina, there are thousands of pleasure craft around the Irish Sea that will visit us when we have all States of tide refuge.

We must not repeat what happened at Port St Mary many years ago.

Wilf from Ramsey currently on the moaning line incandescent with rage about the 21st Century visiting Ramsey. 

Same as last time. 

Did he have anything vaguely intelligent to say? Any joined-up words?

Agreed.

Will be interesting to see what the prices are for a berth etc. I've more-or-less given up sailing but know many who do as I'm in yellow-welly heaven down here. Big complaint about the IOM is lack of 24 hour access.

If it was anything like his tirade yesterday, just "Op" and "pose".

Wilf may look a bit country bumpkin, but is a smart guy who knows about island life and marine life.

Wilf will have the last laugh here, believe me.

Is nobody taking notice of BallaDoc’s posts?
