  1. Alf Tupper..... my hero.... even now!
  2. Too late...... I'm from Leicestershire and already here!
  3. In part, that's because they're using the wrong aircraft. Jets are nice to have. The Q400s win every time. I really don't understand why Aurigny thought it was a good idea to have jets or even 172s.
  4. Some cosmetics that were once retailed at say £40 five years ago, are now available at a fiver or less. Now that might be because there's a lot of contraband entering the market (t'was ever thus) or more likely the price point was set too high in the first place. There are cosmetics for black people but I suspect it's just over-priced: https://www.superdrug.com/Make-Up/Makeup-for-Black-Skin/c/makeup-for-black-skin
  5. It's all down to demand. White or black, if there's sufficient demand then 100% there'd be a company out there making sure they benefit from that market.
  6. What is needed is an aggressor to occupy British "Sovereign" territory and kick off a war (that we can win, of course)... to provide the necessary distraction from all this shit.
  7. Wrighty. On Island, of those who tested positive with CV how many have tested positive with the antibody test, percent wise?
  8. Wasn't this radio genre new to MR? Presumably brought in by the new'ish Controller of Programming and Content? Would be interesting to hear his view on this now that CC have declared that there's been no contravention of their regs? ETA: The reason why I mention this is that the Stu Peters issue is but one part of MR programming changes that have seemingly backfired. MR is not and never will be anything more than a village radio show. Trying to imitate or replicate programming from other larger operators elsewhere has shown how out of it's depth MR is.
  9. Flybe: Could airline take to the skies again?
  10. Thought I would post this up here as it seems we can't help but piss off our visitors before they've even arrived.
  11. https://www.manxradio.com/news/isle-of-man-news/fewer-than-five-serious-crashes-with-reduced-speed-limit-in-place/ If it's "fewer than five serious crashes", why can't you just say exactly how many there were... 4, 3, 2 or just one??
  12. And you can blame that, at least in part, on Blair.
  13. Well, if this is still valid there shouldn't be any aircraft flying in that shouldn't be.
  14. The El Supremo for granny farming in Onchan was Quirkio.
  15. I say.... steady on that man!
  16. Indeed. Some very, very unsavoury characters last I was in there, just after new year. The faux 'Ye olde pub' look doesn't work.
  17. He hasn't sloped off to a CPA meeting in the Maldives again has he?
  18. FlyBe still causing some issues even though they're not operating: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-north-east-orkney-shetland-53076806
  19. For a long time now I've thought that H&B have lost their appetite for the hospitality trade. I'm probably wrong but I get the impression that they're not very agile when it comes to meeting the challenges of today's retail pub market. There's certainly an opening for more micro brewing type operations, I would have thought.
  20. It's official..... the loonies are running the asylum!
  21. But there's responsibility and responsibility without liability.
  22. I can see that it does now that I've reloaded the page.... but what I don't understand is why it didn't show before as I read your original post, Declan's and even Roger's. Something not right somewhere.
