Well, there aren't too many metaphors around to describe the possibility that he might be both, or either. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have always tried to avoid it, not only because it is completely unnecessary, but also because it might upset someone who is religious. I was also taught that there are numerous alternatives that can be used in place of "f" words or other expletives. I use the words "person of religion" in the same way that someone might refer to a "person of colour". (Except maybe in my own home and in private ). Well, golly gosh old bean. If anyone religious is offended, then they would not be reading online forums in the first place, I have religious people in my family, but I don’t understand something they do. If it bothers you on here , I will say Brian, instead of Jesus. OK ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scotty Posted November 15, 2020 Share Posted November 15, 2020 Listening in tonight, I have just realised how good Chris Pearson is. Not only playing great Chillout tracks, he interacts with his listeners so well Thanks for a great Sunday evening. Sunday’s are proving to be the best days to listen in, after the Mannin Line, ( no disrespect to Andy). Programming is so good for the rest of the day.

Barlow Posted November 15, 2020 Share Posted November 15, 2020 (edited) I tuned in four times today. Phil the Match Wheel was talking on the first two, the third he was 'singing'. So I waited until the next programme and bugger me backwards if it wasn't Phil 'singing' again. To be fair, the guest who was speaking about Manx ships (did you know a Manx boat was the first to have an aircraft take off from it...) was very good. Edited November 15, 2020 by Barlow Edited to put the word singing in inverted commas (only joking - it was ok singing) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gladys Posted November 15, 2020 Share Posted November 15, 2020 Not sure I agree, there is no current affairs programme and Phil Gawne speaking Manx in a sing-song way is just awful. Brian Stowell was informative and gave some etymology of the Manx. Phil just reads like he is reading a nursery rhyme to a reception class, even when it is the weather forecast. Its a shame really because Sunday is a good day to sit with a cup of tea, read the newspaper and listen to something interesting and challenging. Have to agree on Chris Pearson, its a good programme as is Christy's on at teatime on a Saturday. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
