Today it was the day we set out to see the island and of course drive the T T circuit witch is a great drive and most of it is on open road only time you have to slow down is when you come to the villages the when we got to Ballaugh after a walk around the new church cemetery and found nothing Val found Steve sitting in his car out of the rain he was cutting the grass but the poor man had no escape after a while he had to give her a name of the parish warden we had a feeling this may lead to something well all it proved was this is where the Corlett clan came from.

So it was back down the road to the Ballaugh bridge and the Raven Hotel that everyone knows or should known and a pint of Guinness.

Then on to Ramsay then back to Douglas via the coast tomorrow it is the 15 00 ferry back to Liverpool.
