Don,
In the 40's & 50's they became known as "footing" coats ( remember them) We still have my dad's coat.

Now now, Pat - you don't mean to suggest that your dad was a cheat?

Just thought you older people would like to know the following :-

Opening time for the Pensioners Club Douglas

Mon - Sat 2.30 pm - 10.30
Sun 12.00 pm - 10.30

I believe they have sarnies on a Sunday.

Well we will take your word for it, but I note they stay up pretty late drinking so I might no be as bad as it sounds.
What the hell are "sarnies"?
In Australia they are sunglasses.

Butties, grub, slices or even baps

Come to think about it, since so many good folk were deported to Oz for stealing a loaf of bread, many may not wish to be reminded of such stuff.

I wouldn't worry too much Chris they deported Don from Oz sometime ago...........not sure what for but it involved 2 sheep and two pairs of well worn welly boots and 200 lbs of cold custard.

He has to make do with sushi now

Do sheep really like custard? have to make a note of that.... not for me you understand, but for one of my friends from Foxdale... thanks for the tip Cargo .... have your new waders by the way .... lol

Cargo is mixed up as we all know and he confuses Australians with New Zealanders and Welsh people. He is just trying to pull the wool over your eyes.

You'll recognise Cargo (alias "Bernard") in this video clip. He is experimenting with advanced sheep-circuitry to power an entry in the TTxGP, but trials are not going as wool as expected.

Clearly neither John nor Don has yet seen my staring role in a video recently released and available to all new marshalls.

To be perfectly honest, I reckon that Castletown Corner last year produced far superior photographs . . . . . . . .

Another still from that first aid video staring Cargo demonstrating the mouth to mouth procedure. As usual Cargo is on his back.

Some people will do anything to get an audience, but Larry's half summersault and three twists would be hard to beat.

I have had the the aforementioned DVD postally delivered but my machine refuses to accept it. I wonder if it rejects the whole idea of helicoptering a smiling casualty, nursing nothing more serious than a cauliflower ear, to Nobles.

I wouldn't have recognised you as you have such a different hair cut than when I first met you.
