Our poem from 1906 by Onchan man, William Gell, Mannin Veg Veen, has us spending time in Douglas, where he celebrates the work of Thomas Keig, who became the first Mayor of Douglas, then we go from the former grandees of the Castle Mona to the humble trippers, riding the horse trams, having donkey rides and enjoying dancing.

We're working our way through the collection of fairy stories by the Brothers Grimm, in a translation into Manx. We're currently hearing the strange history of The Goose Girl.
