Also read about his venture around the East coast of England from Leith down to Newcastle. Think they got the bit wrong about the idea being to block the transport of coal from London! The coal was mined in the North & transported down to London. Maybe just a slip of the pen!Winifredhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12415302188575538163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8362836138711754490.post-74950494311027978592014-01-29T18:42:47.237+00:002014-01-29T18:42:47.237+00:00As a cat lover I'll definitely keep an eye out...As a cat lover I'll definitely keep an eye out for the Manx cats.

I wonder if there is a place that offers a Home of Rest for old dogs? Wouldn't it be wonderful if there was a large island where old or unwanted domestic pets could be sent to live out their final days in loving luxury and freedom? Well we shall now look forward to May when your travel will begin. Is that really the flag for the Isle of Man?
