Manx National Market Day

I had a Victor Meldrew moment under my breath as I reached Douglas Promenade on my morning run today. "I don't believe it" I thought as on the day before the Manx National Day, Douglas Promenade had been invaded by white vans and what looked like tacky market stalls. My enquiries since I got back reveal that it is to be a European food market.

Well I'm going to get my breakfast with Manx milk and butter. And Marie's home made bread using Manx flour will be consumed for breakfast and lunch along with Manx cheese. 

Something has gone horribly wrong when we are promoting foreign food instead of our own during Manx National week.
