‘Isle of Man sighting is down to a natural phenomenon’
Conditions were perfect at sunset last night to see the Isle of Man from the Fleetwood coastline
The Isle of Man ‘bumps’ snapped from Fleetwood.
An orange sky and wind turbines gave way to the peaks of the Isle of Man on the horizon - a phenomenon that only occurs when the conditions are absolutely right, making it a rare and striking feature.
PS. The IOM is “65 Miles” from the English Lancashire coastline.

Sorry, no we didn’t. We were nowhere near Flam and there were no excursion to it, although it would have been nice to do it.
