Tynwald Hill — Attraction in German

It's like Nuremburg but better. If it was up to me attendance at Tynwald Day would be mandatory, and any absences would be noted and punished via internment at The Cronk. There should be millions of fellow Manx patriots gathered to witness the gregarious celebrations of the Governor and Governess. However, when me and my companion visited several weeks ago, half of the grandstand was vacant. My friend also got death rayed by Icarus.

I must stress, my most significant grievance relates to the absence of a 38 metre obeslisk atop the neighbouring Slieau Whallian hill. The Governess needs to pledge to erect this urgent need for the national rejuvenation.

If you need to discuss bell related, do not hesitate to get in touch with Proctess Pam of All Saints in the Greater Chadkirk Realm. Also, Grayham the plague giver has an expert touch on the sally for next years occasion.

Couldn't obtain better picture quality because of the quick falling of that rare meteorological event on the...
