Bob Carswell delivers a weekly programme of great Manx Gaelic broadcasting and entertainment. Having brought us to Skyhill and Milntown, William Gell takes us on to the beauty of Glen Auldyn. Next two contrasting sources of pride: poet T E Brown and underground brine lake at the Point of Ayre, discovered in 1892, which brought industry to the area and a salt works in Ramsey from 1902 until its decline in the 1940s. We admire the orginal height of Kirk Andreas Tower and the importance of the Archdeacons and Rectors of Andreas - ex officio members of the Legislative Council until 1919. Our story in Manx deals with the rise to pre-eminence of a young man who selflessly gave his savings for the sake of a fellow worker - and reaped a reward.
