So good on him for making it a bit nicer. You're not into nature then, Declan? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kopek Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 What is the material used for the design, will it be fixed down and not blow away, will it be removed in a short time??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dilligaf Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 (edited) Well I admire the guy for doing this. Not a young man, which made it even more of a great effort to complete such an outstanding art piece. As he says himself, it will be a talking point and something to look out for when passing by road or by plane. I can't see any downside to this at all. There will always be the detractors though and several have already made childish comments trying to look big and clever. Well done Mr Callister Edited October 7, 2019 by dilligaf 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean I love the views up to North Barrule, it's rugged and natural and now I've got to look at some shitty 3 legs symbol that the fella wants to paint bright white. "It's for the Manx people to remind them of..." Look I don't need reminding I live here. What is it with sticking the 3 legs on things like it matters. It doesn't. I'm just getting older and grumpier but this has pissed me off. Apparentley he doesn't need planning to move stones, so I might dedicate the next few years in strewing ths shite back all over the place. Oh well. I agree. The three legs symbol is overrated. Elsewhere, fine, but here it is just pointless sticking it everywhere. It's like putting a stereotypical double decker red bus symbol all over London. Totally pointless and takes something too far. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The downside is that it's boring, ruins the view, and further pushes a symbol which is already over-saturated in its local presentation. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the stinking enigma Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 It's a pretty poor show getting this local amateur fruitcake to do it for free when we could have paid a swanky outdoor art firm from across a couple of hundred grand for the same job.

My reply was to a poster who is sometimes jewish. Well I can trace mine back to about 1700 as well so I suppose that’s enough. I still don't see how that is relevant though. I just reckon most Manx folk and plenty of imports will admire it and praise the chap for his hard work . Why not challenge "Wrighty" on this , as he likes it and is not Manx? If you are just agitating because it is me, don't bother. I am not getting into a fight over this . I like it. End of. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
