Moghrey Mie Posted April 22, 2009 Share Posted April 22, 2009 A horse poop-scooper on the Isle of Man's famous horse trams could save Douglas Council about £20,000 a year. Source : http://news.bbc.co.uk/go/rss/-/1/hi/world/...man/8013334.stm Surely it needs to be fixed to the horse rather than the tram. What a waste of time for members of Douglas Borough Council. They don't have to be there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thesultanofsheight Posted April 22, 2009 Share Posted April 22, 2009 What a waste of time for members of Douglas Borough Council. This is a corporation that's used to filtering shit on an industrial scale. Surely they could have come up with a better solution? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Hedgehog Posted April 22, 2009 Share Posted April 22, 2009 Wouldn't some kind of horse cork be a better idea? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minnie Posted April 22, 2009 Share Posted April 22, 2009 When I clicked play on that video I had a horrible feeling we were going to see how well/badly the poop-scoop actually worked! Mayor Dot Pitts seems to be excited about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nitro Posted April 22, 2009 Share Posted April 22, 2009 Wouldn't it be easier letting the horse have a shite before setting off along the prom? Gotta love these BBC headlines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minnie Posted April 22, 2009 Share Posted April 22, 2009 Wouldn't it be easier letting the horse have a shite before setting off along the prom? Yeah, good idea. "Hello Mr Horse, would you be needing a poo just now before we set off?"......"Not just yet, mate, give me 5 minutes will you?". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keyboarder Posted April 22, 2009 Share Posted April 22, 2009 it looks like it's too far away from the horse. Ffs, this can't be for real - is MF's John Faragher going to virtually jump out in a minute and shout "AH HA, GOT YOU ALL THIS TIME!"?. Or are all councillors as dense as each other? And what's to test? They've been using such devices all over Europe for years. Or do Manx horses have an unusually positioned rectum? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In an ideal world i'd be nice though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albert Tatlock Posted April 22, 2009 Share Posted April 22, 2009 I think they are a bunch of Scat-terbrained idiots - and obviously a scat-hful bunch - each one of them with a Scat-fetish. All they go on about all day is bleedin sh1t. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

molly Posted April 22, 2009 Share Posted April 22, 2009 I was at the ski resort of avoriaz last winter where the town is car free and all taxi's are horse and sleigh. All the horses there had a leather pouch held under the horses tail to catch the shite. seemed to work well enough as there was no dung anywhere to be seen on the snow roads.also the shite was not in view of everyone when in the pouch.
