Douglas Council has given up attempting to arrange a presentation ceremony to formally confer the freedom of the borough on cycling superstar Mark Cavendish.
After well over two years of talking to agents to try and agree a mutually convenient date, it's been decided to hang the specially commissioned illuminated address in the town hall, and wait for Cav to get in touch.

DoI apologises for motorsport fees error
Tynwald rejects issuing censure
Reports of dangerous jet ski activity prompts warning to 'respect Safe Bathing Areas'
Former Manx Care CEO to take charge of Guernsey health service
