No More Mr Grimshaw - FC - 11-08-2008
Mr Grimshaw has lost his job as the Minister for Fun at the DTL, he is to be replaced by Mr Martin (Pinkie)Quayle of the free bus home for me and by Drunken mates fame
Mr Grimshaw is to take over at the Home Affairs who are in charge of the new Prison, Government must be thinking ahead and expecting plenty at the prison for non payment of parking tickets on the prom, A familiar face at the prison gates for the TT is a welcome thought

Adrian did more for the TT with Wally Radclife in the last 20 years than alot of others ever did.
and it was out of their own pockets traveling round the uk finding riders like McGregor Kenny Blake the Erickson brothers Dennis Ireland
and many many more
He also was a marshal and still is and between him and wally they can roll of more facts and figures about the TT & Mgp than many others so dont judge a book by its cover
I was told i was wrong in yesterdays posting so now i will tell you are all wrong !!! people who work for the benifit of the races for nothing are a lot better than paid officials i know as an MHK he was paid but as tourisim minister not TT minister

I am very pleased to learn that he helped Kenny Blake, something I certainly did not know. If he had the insight to recognise the best rider to leave Australia's shores then he has my respect. Thank you Adrian. But as a minister he did lack charisma you must admit. The Minister of Fun has to smile.
