hampsterkahn Posted June 11, 2019 Author Share Posted June 11, 2019 Curtailing the activities of opportunist ,fly by night, non tax, non rate paying, rogue traders who appear around TT is one thing , but to focus further afield ,even if it is possible ,would be pointless and serve only to reduce the exposure of the TT We are not competing in the fish and chip business against “TT Fish and Chips” in Blackpool or against “TT car tow bars “ in Warwickshire any more than the Houses of Parliament are in the HP brown sauce industry. If businesses (who are not providing competing products or services) use a similar “ TT”, It could be argued that the closer it resembles the recognised logo the better as it provides more widespread “brand recognition and reinforcement” - for free.

ecobob Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 Christ. They’d better not visit the blacksmith in Laxey. He’s already spitting feathers at the government. If they went in there and saw his stuff... there may be trouble ahead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They paid lawyers to tidy it all up after their initial failed attempts at enforcing with Bushy’s etc I believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
