Gunnels is just a shortening of Gunwhales. Like Forecastle becomes Fo'c'sle. They don't like using long words on boats for some reason.

IOM Posted March 27 Share Posted March 27 2 minutes ago, WTF said: you don't seem to want to take into account that tesco IOM prices even if they are 5% more than the uk or not are still better value than shoprites 30% on sainsburys stuff I think you miss the point I do recognise this although it’s difficult to know by how much . It’s the Lake Road shoppers and online shoppers who are now paying a lot more than they were previously it’s those that I am referring to .

Gizo Posted March 27 Share Posted March 27 I hate the IoM when ‘new’ things open. It’s fckn embarrassing. Every cunt wanting to go to the new shop. Over 1000 likes on FB. Give over yourself. The shop is open tomorrow you know. like all those twats jamming up Peel road when kFC opened , on the hottest day of the year, every single one of them is a twat. not seen a car in the place since. Wankers. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the mix in Castletown is not popular and reflected in a lower turnover than projected, you can bet they will change it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

madmanx90 Posted March 27 Share Posted March 27 I have been to the Castletown store many times and it always seems busy yes it's more expensive but I think people just use it as a convenience store for bread milk and alcohol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
