Holiday time

Well folks I am going to be missing for a full 2 weeks while I holiday on the isle of Man - Ellan Vannin. For those of you unfamiliar with the geography of the British Isles it sits in the middle of the Irish Sea, it is not part of the UK, but part of the Commonwealth. It is somewhat of a tax haven, governs it's self with its own parliament 'Tynwald' and has a mutant breed of cat with no tail. The most famous export is the Manx Kipper - smoked herrings.

Not the greatest picture this but was the 1st glimpse of the island after 3hrs sailing from the port of Heysham.

I am hoping for an exciting 2 weeks of exploration of a completely new place to me.
