Hope everyone had a good time. I've got to get my photos uploaded of the fireworks I went to. I was thinking of starting a thread if anyone else has any to share
Today is Tynwald Day - kinda our Manx equivalent, although it's not tied into independence as such. It's more a celebration of Tynwald - the oldest continuous parliament in the world. I had to shoot the whole thing on video for our site:
Contrary to popular belief, the oldest working parliament in the world is not in Iceland, but in the Isle of Man, where the Scandinavians ruled for almost 500 years. The Tynwald, established in the 9th century AD, claims to be the worlds oldest continuous parliament.

GmanX, did you know Iceland's parliment has been in operation since 874 AD? I think that beats the Isle of Man by about 600 years.
