Slim Posted June 3, 2009 Share Posted June 3, 2009 Hey dont forget Hockey week, I used to be the lucky Digger driver that performed the endless task of pushing the piles of seaweed off the beach and back in to the water and many a time have witnessed many female hockey players going for a early morning dip/swim before training on the beach, Still happens though doesn't it?

johnquayleiom Posted June 3, 2009 Share Posted June 3, 2009 Choir festival - Pile of wank Tourism minister - pile of wank Staff at the DTl - pile of wank I love it! I couldn't agree more if I tried Choirs? FFS. All they need to do is lift the stupid smoking ban and decriminalise the cannabis, fill the proms/quay with coffee shops the Isle of Man would be a great little place. I agree - turn the old summerland into a red light district with coffee shops and casinos and strip clubs. Little amsterdam in douglas - would be great for stag / hen parties.

mudcheck Posted June 3, 2009 Share Posted June 3, 2009 I used to be the lucky Digger driver that performed the endless task of pushing the piles of seaweed off the beach and back in to the water Did anyone explain to you the logic behind the seaweed movement? The reason I ask is because i started a thread a bit back asking why this daily ritual took place as i can see benefit apart from the sale of diesel, maintenance of the machinery and of course your invoice.

Little amsterdam in douglas - would be great for stag / hen parties. Doesn't preclude a choir festival though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bellyup Posted June 4, 2009 Share Posted June 4, 2009 No a Choir festival. http://www.manxradio.com/newsread.aspx?id=36261 Bit of a kick in the teeth to the Jazz festival they wouldn't support. It's okay though GC had the idea 10 years ago -"but nothing came of it". How about a Kaupthing Singer and Friedlander Reconciliation festival? Reconciling thousands of KSF depositors with their life savings. This would be a popular move and guaranteed to bring thousands of happy savers to the Island.
