The Lottery Winners, they were brilliant. I defy anyone to come away from one of their gigs without a bloody big smile on your face. Superb Villa Marina, Wednesday.

Biskee Brisht - Weds night at the Villa Marina. Broken Biscuits from the Isle of Man. Unapologetically catchy indie folk music. They were very good

Maybe it’s a childhood thing 🤷🏻‍♂️

Richard Hawley at #VillaGaiety last night, with Shez Sheridan. They were both very good & emotive, as were support #TruemanFalls #TriskelPromotions 🫡

Part of the Music For The Senses - MCR

Yn Burroo - just off the Calf of Man

Ok, not football related.

Very, very hot … 🌞

FC Isle of Man’s Ste Whitley played his 150th league game for the club today. A model of being consistently good.

26/4/25 @workingtonafc.bsky.social 🆚 Ashton United. @thenpl.bsky.social The Reds signed off in style swatting aside Ashton, whose Play Off place was already assured. 1,031 saw the Cumbrians romp home 5-1. Great old ground, good young team.
