Thousands donated in just 48 hours
The man behind Beach Buddies says he's been blown away by the response so far to his appeal for donations to buy a landmark in the north of the Isle of Man.
On Sunday, Bill Dale asked the public for help, as he aims to bid for the Winkie lighthouse at the Point of Ayre, to use as a northern base for the charity.
In the 48 hours since he has had £7,000 pledged, leaving him just £3,000 short of the asking price.
Bill says he wasn't expecting things to happen so quickly, if at all:
Police 'actively looking' for drink and drug drivers this Christmas
Fine for man who had to be restrained by five hospital porters
Today's Manxman sailings delayed
MHK questions if reduction in NSC hours goes against Island Plan
