Lhergy Cripperty looking towards Kings Plantation
I found myself up the Lhergy Cripperty on the other day. Only ever descended that road in a car before. Great views of Glen Vine and the King's Plantation at Greeba and if you turn your head Snaefell can be seen as well.
A couple of days later I was yomping towards Ballasalla. The weather wasn't the best as I'd had to walk into the eye of the storm on the way up to Douglas Head and along Marine Drive after that the north easterly was making me wind assisted. That's not unusual though. From this you may well surmise that The Parish Walk is on. Hopefully it is.
Since I last blogged I've been the the Camra Beer Festival held locally to me in the Masonic Hall. I sampled a few until I had Baltic Trader Imperial Stout from the Green Jack Brewery in Lowestoft. It kicks in at 10% so after half a pint of that I was feeling a bit woozy. At great time was had though. I'm glad I went on Friday evening as by Saturday they had run out of beer. Not unlike the Orlando Beer Festival which I attended a few years back. They also ran out of booze so gave us our money back plus $5 which was spent in local bars that very same day.
