    NO but i like that, increase the ferry charge to bring a car across ten fold but make passenger ferry prices £5 single, £ 8.00 return, bring back horse buses on selected island routes ( good for enviroment & roses) and tourists rebuild Ryde pier head back to 1930's Southern condition , replace fast cats with heritage vessels have an program of eventual re opening of closed island lines where its possible to do so freshwater to newport and Cowes , and newport to Sandown to operate a tourist service to west wight using replica BP 2-4-0S and new build IWC 4 Wheelers :)

    You wouldn't say that horses are good for the roses if you saw what the horses from our local stable "spray" across the road! No way could you pick it up with a spade, only way to move it is with a hose!!!

    I can remember my older brother saying you need a passport to visit the Island, to a couple we were chatting to whilst on the ferry, So who else has actually heard of people asking for passport control at Ryde pier head :)
