Organisers are counting down to the start of the Royal Manx Agricultural Show.
The event, which takes place at Staward Farm in Sulby on Friday and Saturday (August 13 and 14), is the largest gathering of the year of members of the Island's farming community.
As usual, there will be all sorts of entertainment and displays of livestock, and many charities and local organisations will be showing off their work.
Show secretary Christine Pain says there's something for everybody:
John Wannenburgh: 'Commitment, compassion and an unwavering sense of duty'
Manx Utilities 'deeply saddened' by death of chairman
"Tynwald will be a less colourful place without John" says president
Douglas North MHK pays tribute to 'amazing friend'
