Thanks all - much appreciated ... Matthew from Gregsons has been very helpful and prompt from the start so i'm thinking i'll get him paid - i'm happy to pay this so we have wheels in motion and gives us time to finalise design. font location etc, fixing won't be a problem as Matthew has done this before and has offered to help, i've got more time this week so i'll have a mooch at B'gow top and hopefully catch up with Chris too ... just off for some relaxing paddleboarding out and around Bradda Head at Port Erin....... best TT/MGP rgds Alfie.
Thanks all for the donations - i'm meeting up with Matthew from Manx Memorials who has been very kind and helpful....the plaque should be made within the next couple of days and i'll get it fixed before I leave on the 31st......Matthew also donated the £100 to The IoM Hospice...

Good on ya Alfie (and Matthew) - looking forward to seeing some pictures.
Hello all , sorry for delay - lots of my spare time gobbled up by emergency practice session response car duties but plaque is now in place on chunky stone wall outside of the small church top of Barregarrow, there wasn't anywhere suitable where you would spectate on opposite side area and Matthew from Manx Memorials said that fixing to wood of any description is not a good method, the plaque will also appear in any pics taken from opposite side hedge spec area. Thank you all for the donations. I can't recommend enough Matthew from Manx Memorials who has been very helpful, if anyone needs anything similar please call him on 01624 843861 or 07624 220733 .. best TT/MGP rgds Alfie.
Well done!
Will definitely have to view from around there next year.
Strangely we've only ever been to the bottom, years ago obviously, but never the top!
Malcolm's memorial plaque is both well thought out and well positioned, a credit to all involved. It's a wonderful reminder to everyone of Malcolm's excellent work in creating and maintaining our website.
Malcolm's plaque is still in place and looking fine .... best seasonal rgds to you all from Alfie and IoM .... hiked up Snaefell yesterday with my son while the weather was good / clear .... very refreshing / bracing...........blowin a wet grey hoolie otherwise....all sorts of chatter about the boat not sailing next few days due to incoming weather and wind......ho ho ho.
