MNFU highlights concerns
While the majority of the Island is enjoying soaking in the sunshine, the farming community is beginning to be concerned about the effect the dry spell is having on their growing crops.
In the UK, it's reported that rainfall has been thirty per cent of that normally expected over the last month.
On the Island, there are areas that are affected more than others.
Brian Brumby is president of the Manx National Farmers' Union:
Police 'actively looking' for drink and drug drivers this Christmas
People urged to make alternative arrangements to get home
Fine for man who had to be restrained by five hospital porters
30-year-old told he'd made 'extremely foolish choices'
Today's Manxman sailings delayed
The Steam Packet Company says it's due to an earlier delay from Heysham
MHK questions if reduction in NSC hours goes against Island Plan
Decision made by management due to reduced demand
