Speed limit for the IoM (again). This transport minister bloke, is he an
immigrant, or what?

Mildly eccentric Sunday doesn't have the same ring about it.

 

Why do you care? I didn't think speeds over 60mph were within your
reach.

 

There have been no further reports on the Islands own webshite since
this one in January..

Just reminds the three-leggers that it will be speed cameras next.

 

reading that article at face value, he's proposing to have a speed
limit during the racing - which will make it somewhat less
interesting.

 

At last! A chance for Champ to win a TT on a unicycle![/QUOTE]

Harsh.

 

They've had them for about 3 years already.

Leave the Church of Scotland out of it.

 

Given a particularly nasty rumour that 2007 will see the end of racing
on the mountain circuit, that wouldn't be an issue.

And whereabouts is this rumour circulating? I can't see it on any of
the TT sites that I know, nor the IOM news site, and I haven't heard it
announced on Radio Vannin.

It's not just you.

I propose a revolution with ukrm forming a new government. What ukrm
regulars do we give the heady position of cabinet minister to, and who
leads the country?

The last article...TT dates until 2014.

Should be something amongst that lot that you can trawl through to
satisfy your curiosity.

One of my dealers shook my hand the other day, then noticeably checked
his hand to make sure he still had all his fingers.

 

I vote Colin Irvine for Prime Minister - he's got the look of a man you
could trust...

 

I'll be Chancellor of the Exchequer.

"Your money's safe with me."

 

It's the onward march of the Safety Cunts, without whom we'd all be
doing interesting things. I see a future of grey bland porridge where
we'll all be constricted in what we can do and punished if we step over
the limits of behaviour.

Those SCs won't be satisfied until everybody is raised from the cradle
with a thorough indoctrination about Safety drummed into their skulls.
And you know the saddest thing about that? The future generations won't
even know what they're missing.

Somewhere, though, there will be a Gixxer Thou or R1, carefully stashed
away in a bunker cunningly concealed under someone's living room. At
night the ghostly wail of open pipes will be heard across the moorland
as the Underground take illicit trips on their bikes, dicing with life
itself; for to be caught openly flouting the Law will lead to early
termination. Such an anti-Safety activity will be banned and outlawed.
