Trip Advisor

Most hoteliers have some reservations about 'review sites' but the truth is that in 2010 most peoplee booking a hotel room like to have a look on Trip Advisor before committing themselves and their money to a certain establishment wherever in the world, so you may as well embrace them as you'll be on them anyway. Therefore, we have added the link to write about the Welbeck Hotel on both the website and all e-mails that we send.

So far, we have been lucky (though I like to believe that we make our own luck) and have almost exclusively received positive comments and sit in 2nd/27 position on 'Douglas Hotels.' Please feel free to add your observations, though we obviously would prefer any constructive criticism to come directly to us.

Blog updated 14th April

Following in the footsteps of my Parish Walk Blog in 2008 and seeing that everyone else from every single Manx Radio presenter to Mark Woodward of the IOM Steam Packet is doing one, here is my latest effort 1st April 2010 http://michaelswelbeckblog.blogspot.com

Peel Centenary Centre will once again play host to live theatre from 6th to 10th April with matinee performances on the Friday and Saturday.

Visits by Fairport Convention & Irish Racewalking Squad

Once again , I've been very slack with the updates but following the excellent 'Picture of Dorien Gray' by Oscar Wilde which was put on by T.N.T. Productions, we were visited by the veteran folk/rock group, Fairport Convention who played a brilliant gig at the Gaiety Theatre.

The Irish Racewalkers comprised of mainly juniors were here to compete at the HSBC Manx Open Walks and they duly won all the races.They are led by the redoubtable Michael Lane who in the past has brought Olympians, Jamie Costin and Rob Heffernan, as well as World Championship campaigner, not to mention Gillian O'Sullivan who came 2nd in 2003 and Olive Loughnane who won silver medal last year in Berlin. This year two of the juniors, Emma Prendiville and James Traenor achieved consideration for the Youth Olympics to be held later in the year in Singapore.
