The Sound

Another sunny day in the IOM, so time spent in the garden putting bark down on the borders to hopefully suppress any of the weeds that have left their seeds for next spring.

This afternoon we watched the first half of the match between Douglas RUFC v Winnington Park. 




We are going to Twickenham in November to see England v Argentina, hope they are as entertaining as Douglas were today.

Leaving the rugby ground we made our way south and to the Sound Cafe.

We stopped in Castletown on the way home where I had a glass of Saltaire Pride  in the Castle Arms.
