The Beautiful Isle of Man 1 (A little wind noise, sorry!)

http://globalonlinemasterminds.com
I wanted to quickly show you were I live, the beautiful Isle of Man. The island lies in the middle of England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales, in the Irish Sea. We are part of the British Isle but not the UK. We have our own government, known as Tynwald, which is the longest continuous government in the world, established in 979AD. We have our own money, linked to sterling, but we can't spent it in the UK. The island is also famous for the annual TT motorcycle races, for which people from all over the world come to watch and also Manx cats because they have no tails! I did live in Mauritius for a while, but it good to be home. Cheers Rik PS Sorry for the poor sound quality, the mic really picked up the wind, even though it wasn't that windy. I've tried to reduce it but this is the best I could get it!

Hi

Thanks, yes, it is beautiful. When the weather is a little better I'll try to do a few more videos around the island. It gets even better!
