Title
The Isle Where Fairies Still Roam
Description
There is a place, where the bus driver reminds you to greet the fairies when crossing a bridge on a major road. That place is the unique Isle of Man, originally the home of a Sea God and fairy folk. Folklore is so a part of the culture that a field guide to 343 sites over the 221 square miles of the Isle has just been published. Hear tales of merfolk, witches, a talking mongoose and scary bugganes.
