Tourism and leisure brought much joy
On Thursday, four people will be elected to the Legislative Council.
Nine candidates are vying for the seats - two sitting MLCs and seven newcomers.
One person who won't feature is David Cretney, who's stepping down after more than three decades as a national politician, mostly as an MHK but latterly as an MLC.
He says his favourite aspects of the job were being involved with the tourism and leisure side of things:
Tynwald approves changes to sitting schedule, including half-term breaks and revised start dates
Plea to Manx parents to check meningitis vaccination status
Bus dispute ‘a considerable way apart’ as talks continue, says infrastructure minister
Noble's bed capacity exceeding industry-recognised 'safe levels'
