Its never been a pay toilet ! and while your at it do a proper cost benefit analysis of the amount you pay to the contractors SCS for looking after the pay to use toilets on the promenade ,if you employed one person in house to keep all the corporation toilets clean and replace paper etc ,and didn't make a charge , I bet it would be a much cheaper option , you should have plenty of staff to choose from when the refuse collection is reduced to fortnightly and the operatives are standing around for a week waiting for the next collection , I don't see anywhere in the corporation accounts, the cost of operating public toilets , and income received from public toilets Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you can bring such vehicles over as a visitor, it's just that they can't be registered here. Which leaves us with quite a conundrum then, seeing as at least one of them was, and still is, registered here. https://services.gov.im/vehicles-driving/vehicle-search/results?RegMarkNo=pmn300n That image is from today.

So who told who at DBC that they couldn't be registered then? And if they can't, how did this happen? The more you pull, the more it unravels. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will of happened because local CS think they know more than the rule book (If there is one) and deploy laws and rules as they seem fit. Dealing with any IOM CS means a long slow trip to the bottom of the intelligence pile and you will not get a straight answer until you produce the "Get out Of Jail Card" that is "I Will call my MHK" This is the only way to sort a lot of CS interference and misunderstanding of the rules and regs. I really don't like this as the MHKs should be doing "higher" things but next time I let my front garden hedge get too far over the pavement I will call Stu Peters and tell him its only overgrown because I drive a Carlos Fandango Castanet Turbo and I am sure he will make the local authority, CS go away...............................

By the way Mr Mozart, it would be jolly decent of you if you would leave the photo exif data intact, especially if you have GPS enabled camera.

Kopek Posted March 19, 2022 Share Posted March 19, 2022 PMN 300 N. Hmmmmm. Are they waiting for an offer on the plate? Worth afew quid. How many other special Reg No. do the Corp have? How much did they cost? If they have any KMN **, let me know! We should thank Amadeus for new source of info re the DCorp. Danke! No info yet on the replacement of rubbish trucks and new re-cycle centre? How one is caused by the other? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
