CrazyDave Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 1 minute ago, WTF said: skills you say. Hey. Why don’t you head up there tomorrow and ask the guys from PCS and Theobuild laying the blocks if they have any skills. Then head down to the prom in a few weeks and have the same chat with the guys IDGW have on site doing the formworks the same question? Be sure to report back and let us know what you think of the food at nobles. Or you could just hide behind a keyboard and knock them. 1 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CallMeCurious Posted January 2 Share Posted January 2 (edited) Shut until Sunday from Ramsey to the Bungalow to finish the retaining wall apparently according to MR. Lets hope they can keep the Coast Road open. Or will that be diverted out around the wilds of Maughold still?

Waiting for the paint to dry first though.... six guys with brollies up there day and night keeping the rain off. After all they'll need somewhere to plaster more adverts for TT fortnight. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wall will be over two foot thick at the bottom when finished, and about 18 inhces at the top. I wish people would wait until they had facts before spouting crap. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
