Come on people, be fair, he's only had a year so far 😝 Writing a Tynwald speech in crayon can take a long time!

I suspect we are seeing a lot of different and often ridiculous 'marks of respect' because, for pretty much the bulk of us, the Queen has been a reliable and stable constant for many, many years, of our lives. Suddenly she dies and everything changes for everyone...and it perhaps makes us all feel that little less mortal and react in many different ways. We now have Charles - For many older people, unthinkable only less than a few decades ago that divorcees could become king, particularly when in fairly recent history we had an abdication about the very same thing. We've lost some standards I think, maybe even a part of the British Isles feels it has lost part of its soul. Charles and Camilla have a lot to prove, to get anywhere near what we have lost.

Don't bother...you already know how it ends.

Chocolate keeps for months...the majority of the £1000's of goods prepared for this festival by other traders will last for only days or weeks at most.

Never heard of that before.

Coincidently, my Uncle Tony, arguably the world's untidiest and unkempt man, also died last week. His body is currently lying in a state.
