to be than our Isle in these temperatures.Enough already,

great sets from Shedmen and Penthouse Dive at the tent last night.

Good to get the oldies out of the house! Nigel Williams and the

Free Radicles had one of the best sunsets for their show at Port Erin

with a little mystical Manannan’s Cloak to add effect.
