A67 MAN
A Children's charity has been nominated for the kind donation of Easter eggs
Would those concerned want to deliver them to the hospital personally ?
Sounds like the perfect excuse for a drive out to me!

Lastly,
What is the price of fuel on the island? Is it worse than the mainland?

Current price is £1.09 so bring some with you, don't fill up though or they will not let you on the boat especially in the slight swells you be encountering

• Friday, March 21st – 11.15 Liverpool to Isle of Man – currently scheduled to sail, but could be delayed/disrupted
Everything crossed.
Delivering the eggs sounds good, our boys would appreciate that too, teaching them to give aswell as receive!

Maybe he just doesn't want to drive it in these high winds, what happened to the bloody weather was fine this morning
The seacat at Liverpool use to be a customer of mine and i remember that it never sailed in bad weather so god knows what's happening. On or off who knows
