Fantastic weekend on the Isle of Man. Sunny and warm 18°. We made the most of it before the temperature drops this coming week.

Hi Sharon, did you mean @bridgebooksdromore.bsky.social for we are on the Isle of Man.

Today was a good day for delivering books. Before that though, Connie, the bookshop dog, and I had to climb to the top of the nearest hill in preparation for an afternoon of motoring around the island.
Thank you to all our customers who choose to shop locally.

What's up? Nothing is up, just a new window display to zoom in on or stop you in your tracks as you walk on by. That's it, have a nosy, choose a book and pop in, support your local Manx family owned independent bookshop. Thank you.

Open today in both Port Erin and Ramsey 11am-4pm

It's a beautiful morning with blue skies and sunshine. Still windy but nothing like yesterday's #StormDarragh thankfully.

A warm welcome awaits inside your cosy local bookshop (also selling art and music supplies).

#stormdarragh When is the lull people are talking about? We've had no lull. It is practically stuck over the Isle of Man. Raging for a constant 19 hours now.

This is like snow day without the fun of the snow. I have never known a storm to be so relentless. It has been battering the Isle of Man since 3am. Our shops are closed in Port Erin on the west coast but open in Ramsey on the east coast.

I'm back! I forgot my password and it's taken 8 days to reset it. Thank you for all the follows. What have I missed?

Yes it can be distracting sometimes. You can see the weather fronts coming our way from N. Ireland during the winter months.
