Margaret Witherington visiting from Australia
An Australian visitor with Manx roots is looking forward to today's Tynwald Day celebrations.
Margaret Witherington lives in Brisbane but was born at the old Jane Crookall Maternity Home, on Demesne Road, and grew up in Douglas.
She moved away several years ago but has always stayed connected to her homeland as a member of the Queensland Manx Society.
