And they say us sailors can spin a yarn. She can hardly keep her face straight. All that said this is a wonderful video.
How do you go about contacting those types of people?
Some maternal ancestors of mine include the Norse-Gaelic Crovan Dynasty family, who most certainly lived within this castle in the 11-13th centuries. While they certainly didn’t experience the full castle as it is now, this is most fascinating to me. I wish to visit someday.

3rd Peel scouts used to meet at the Rechabite hall prior to the building of the new scout hut at the Tank site. Do you remember Mr Green, Scout leader and Royal Navy Commander who used to go for a swim every morning off Peel beach. He was filmed by the BBC taking a dip in the middle of winter.
Loved your talk. I have a great grandfather from the Isle of Man (W.K Cunningham ) and another who won the first TT( Rem Fowler)
P50 but round
Beautiful song, and a lovely voice. Love from Scotland. 💜
Just gorgeous Mera, you are such an exceptional harpist, and have long been a source of inspiration for my own harp journey. Thank you for continuing to inspire....
That looks really cool. I'll have to find one while I'm here on holiday.
Thank you, fascinating history. An absolute grind for the workers. I Climbed Lady Isabella 1962. If the walls of Dumbells Row cottages could talk, cldnt climb the stairs now. Been to the Isle of Man 8 times. Aged 84 Liverpool.
Ha. That's my house !!!! Nothing like that anymore ! Honest Officer !!!!😅
Ha! What a great story to have on your house - and a beautiful place to live it is too! :)
This is fantastic!
In 1968 my ship visited San Francisco. Hippies everywhere!. Had a meal of scallops and fries and asked where the scallops came from. Manx scallops was the reply. They were actually queenies.
I worked with Albert on the Ben My Chree. One TT week sailing we were on the vehicle deck parking and lashing bikes. They had to be stacked close together and Albert after watching me trying to persuade bikers to get closer to the next bike, he said “watch this” and the next bike along he directed them to point their bike with the front wheel close in, he then nipped around the back and lifted the bike and rider into the right position. We became a good team from then on.
Wish I could have understood more of this. I’m Clan McMaster and it is very hard to find out about them. Thank you for doing this story.
An English-language version of this film is also available, here: ruclips.net/video/g4_mfyRtOvo/видео.html 🙂
I remember getting a Steam Packet boat to Peel ,. when it was to rough to dock in Douglas. How times have changed now it wouldn t have sailed !
Mr Frost's stories are such a treasure! I loved to listen to him. Thanks for that, Culture Vannin! 🙏
So beautiful! My favourite pub in Peel since I first visited the Isle of Man in 1987. My God! Those were the days when you could leave the pub at 10pm with 3 pints in your hand. :-))

Sweet
High grain diets lead to chronic tooth decay. High animal fat diets are the opposite, they give strong teeth.
What fun! I love these stories.
Fascinating. I am moving to the Isle of Man.... The little people are calling me......
Beautiful whistle playing too!
I start to get fascinated with the people in the foreground.
😊
This is brilliant
They should make a cammag league
My wife & i visited the isle of man two years ago & visited Ballafayle cairn (Reayrt Charles).I couldnt speak it was so beautiful & time seemed to compress until the hair on my neck stood up, It is by far the most powerful place i have ever set foot in. I must go back before long.
I was looking for a interpretation of three little boats for my pupils and I found this really inspiring one ! Thanx to you Manx from Germany!
Fantastic overview!
they believed a mongoose spoke to them a media frenzy came next

Groudle Glen will live in my heart as long as it continues to beat. But, my question, and this may be a false memory. Around 1968/9, someone told me about a place on the island that had been painted by a 'famous artist', it was called, if memory serves, The Seven Fields of Green' and I have the faintest of memories that I actually stood where the scene was painted. I've tried to 'google it' but to no avail, can anyone enlighten me?
Fantastic
Good to hear from Kathleen. It still doesn't explain some of the most outrageous accounts from investigators as well.
An amazing programme thank you. You learn something new everyday xx
That looks like it would be fun to dance :)
I was born in the ISLE OF MAN at Ramsey and I just love all these stories of Manx Culture and Manx history. Regards, David M Kemp. Once a Manxman always a Manxman.
Thank you the video. Is there any information about how it got named "Rock of the Cows"?
Sadly not. We would assume that there was once a rocky outcrop around there by which someone kept their cows, so people referred to it as 'Creg ny Baa' as a description, which soon became a name, and this transferred over to the pub that was built near it... But the actual story is lost in time - all we have, like so many places around the Island, is just the name. :)

The British did the same in Canada during the first world war they were putting Ukrainians in interment camps some 19000 males and during their stay they were exploited as free labour. Things changed when a Ukrainian Canadian won the VC for Hill 70 in France in 1917 . During the second world war over 35000 Canadian Ukrainians served and took part in D Day they had a lot of casualties.
I bet it was found in Ramsey 😁
Happy Hop-tu-Naa!
Hi Dr. Weale. Are there any plans for DNA testing on these remains?
👍👍
