Manx yanks to give thanks

Celebrates traditional US harvest celebrations

The Island's adopted Americans (and anyone else who fancies it) are being treated to a hearty taste of home this week.

Foraging Vintners is hosting a 'Manxgiving' party at its winery in Port Erin on Thursday night.

The gathering will coincide with traditional harvest celebrations in the US and Canada, held on the fourth Thursday in November every year.

You can buy tickets in advance from tickettailor.com.

This year's Manx census recorded almost 500 North Americans living here.
