Steve Gribbon Posted November 1, 2004 Share Posted November 1, 2004 Which idiot thought up the "honk your car horn in tune to a hornpipe"?Have they read the highway code? The horn. Use only while your vehicle is moving and you need to warn other road users of your presence. Very irritating and exruciatingly cr4p. I doubt even a BBC Radio 1 DJ could dream that one up. I'll have to search out 3FM. Even George wasn't that irritating in his Radio TT mode. (ps Manx Radio - I love ya really) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Old Git Posted November 1, 2004 Share Posted November 1, 2004 I'll have to search out 3FM. 104 - 106 FM (ps Manx Radio - I love ya really) I'm rapidly going off them if today is an example of things to come Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
happy camper Posted November 1, 2004 Share Posted November 1, 2004 Just had a quick look at the schedule. There's a lot of Mandates on each day! IMO one is more than enough.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Old Git Posted November 1, 2004 Share Posted November 1, 2004 IMO one is more than enough.. Especially when they are repeating bits on Rewind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Gribbon Posted November 1, 2004 Share Posted November 1, 2004 Manx Radio are saying Good Afternoon, Good Morning etc in Manx a lot more I hear. 3:00pm News today started with: "Moghrey mie, 3 O'clock news with Charlotte . . " Ah well, its the thought that count. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jim Posted November 1, 2004 Share Posted November 1, 2004 Listened to a bit this morning, total pants they just seemed to be wonderin around the station telling each other how good they were, so I turned off. So what is the situation with the mannin line, has it gone for good? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Old Git Posted November 1, 2004 Share Posted November 1, 2004 So what is the situation with the mannin line, has it gone for good? Looks like it. 3FM ought to start one. I'm sure it would be more popular that what Manx Radio have in its place Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jim Posted November 1, 2004 Share Posted November 1, 2004 Well that seems a little odd, being as lots of people tuned in to manx radio for the mannin line alone, so do the people of the Isle of Man no longer have a voice!? Were as certain politicians can stand up in front of Tynwald and give a personal statement with full knowledge it will be broadcast for all to hear.

The Old Git Posted November 1, 2004 Share Posted November 1, 2004 so do the people of the Isle of Man no longer have a voice!? Not unless you want to write to the newspapers Apart from a bit of Mandate and 8am news, Mannin Line was the only thing I made an effort to listen to on Manx Radio. If that's gone then I think a number of listeners will also be gone. Bit like when manx.net stopped the forums, I haven't been back to that site since then Should be interesting when one of Manx Radio's salesmen call around at work and we have 3FM on.

BigDave Posted November 1, 2004 Share Posted November 1, 2004 So what is the situation with the mannin line, has it gone for good? It looks like it's been cut down to one programme per week, on Sundays at 1pm - I think that's one of the time slots that gets the fewest listeners as well. Coincidence?
