Anyone Posted July 26, 2020 Share Posted July 26, 2020 The contact should have been given to Dandara. Say what you like about them but they would have said ‘keep the DOI out of it and it’ll be done in 6 months’. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the cracks in the external render on all of their estates is anything to go by they'd make a worse mess than the DOI! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What was the point of bringing in consultants if their recommendations were to be given back seat to the opinions of those whom they were brought in to consult about? I think it is called playing lip service, although it may have seemed like a good idea at the time, politicos change their minds quite regularly,especially if it means having to rock the boat.

How many were on the bus with you? I walked the prom today saw about 10 buses come past. The most I ever saw on one was 5 people. Most had less than that. I wonder how many people have taken up the wonderful offer of free bus tickets so they can sit in an empty bus in the midst of this complete clusterfuck holding up traffic?

TheTeapot Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 There were 14 south to Douglas, less going up to Onchan. I was hugely impressed with the prom, truly amazing stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheTeapot Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 I still can't get over quite how nuts it is. I'm tempted to go back to Douglas for another look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lewis Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 Any project planning obviously went out of the window on Day 2 and then it’s ad hoc decisions made on the fly to try and look as if something is being done. Now on 90% of the Prom actually nothing is being done, plant hire is a burning tax payers money and everyone has to put up with the chaos. Don’t know who’s worse Black and Robinson for their incompetence or the politicians for letting them get away with it for so long. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
