No. It’s the same statue. Removed, mountings reinforced and replaced only in the sense it was put back where it was originally located.

The replacement Bee Gees statue looks well.

Is it a replacement? It does look slightly different to the one they took out,

Yes, replacement provided under guarantee.

Christ does Douglas have a fetish for buying broken or defective stuff?

If only there was a way of finding things out on the internet.

(For those without even the skills to click on a link, it's the same statue, just hopefully less wobbly).

Absolutely correct. No way they would do a replacement. It would take weeks. 

It was clear in the news article that it was just the mounting plate.

This must be the town, sorry city, councillor responsible for all of the petty restrictions imposed in Nobles Park? He now want's the TT parking sorted, not sure what he thinks can be done other than ban everything, which seems his default position? 

He fails to mention that he lives, wait for it.....opposite Noble's Park!

Well there was an Irish bloke living in a campervan parked on the road for the whole 2 weeks. Not doing any harm but it would annoy me if someone was living outside my house.

Maybe it was outside his house

Maybe he could hear him snoring

Actually he does:

Mr Clague lives in the area and has experienced these issues first-hand.

‘There was one time for me this year when I couldn’t get my car out of my drive because cars were parked opposite,’ he said. ‘But aside from my own personal experience, I’ve spoken to loads of people who have told me what a poor time they’ve had of it."

For what it's worth it's also in the Douglas East Ward which he represents on the Council.

I know, I live there too, I just make adjustments to cope. It's not easily solved I'm afraid, other than to ban everything!
