Although the street itself is not very high, because it gets flooded whenever there is a decent high tide. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe Canoe Twat Street instead then. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clinton Baptiste Posted August 12 Share Posted August 12 (edited) They must be getting strapped for cash. They’re now looking for some weirdos who fancy paying a good rate for some ex crematorium furniture. It’s maybe worth dropping Ozzy Osbourne a line to see if he needs anything for his next tour. https://www.three.fm/news/isle-of-man-news/old-douglas-crematorium-furniture-to-be-sold-off/ Just weird. Who want any of that stuff in their house? Edited August 12 by Clinton Baptiste Typo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Two-lane Posted August 12 Share Posted August 12 These days every man and his dog needs a lectern if they are going to make a public announcement. Cannan should buy the pulpit so that he can also stand out in the rain while letting us know how capable he is: 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can’t imagine anyone other than a weirdo who would want to buy a crematorium pulpit for their front room or man cave. How many people are they expecting to bid for this precious cargo?

Would you prefer they got destroyed instead? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does make you wonder why the corpy has sat on them ( pun intended ) for 9 years taking up storage space unnecessarily. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WTF Posted August 13 Share Posted August 13 they could be repurposed as props for the gaiety ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirty Buggane Posted August 13 Share Posted August 13 Why were they changed in the first place, go on dare you to say they were at the end of life. Selling off end of life dangerous seats, that would be a good headline, or is it just so the chairs can be cleared out and have space for a silent death disco. May have found a niche market.

Not sure how many plays there are that requires pews as props. Gaiety has no storage. Everything was made to go from under stage by fire officers. 20 minutes ago, Dirty Buggane said: Why were they changed in the first place, go on dare you to say they were at the end of life.

Simple non conspiracy issues are always best. Weren’t they removed with free standing, stacking, upholstered seat, single chairs, that can be stacked and arranged in rows or circles, and sat on comfortably, or moved to one side for your death disco.

And I’m still influenced by my old grans warnings of the evils of the popish antichrist lot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
