End of an era
The Island's 'computer bus man' - also known as Alex Townsend - has announced he's retiring from teaching.
Mr Townsend was working at St Ninian's secondary school in the 1990s when he came up with the idea of converting a Leyland bus into a mobile classroom.
Since its launch in 1998, the project has helped more than 100,000 Manx pupils learn about the internet.
There have been many big moments in his career:
Assurances given to MiCard users
Isle of Man population edges upward to 84,975 as migration drives growth
More services to be temporarily relocated from Ramsey and District Cottage Hospital
