A glorious day

It has been a wonderful summer's day in West Cumbria today. The measure of a clear day on the West Coast of Cumbria is that the Isle of Man is easily visible and it was very clear indeed.

Sometimes I am stunned by how beautiful the world around us is, and today was one of those days.

I like the Isle of Man, its great, the only thing you need to watch out for there is the dreaded VAT (though thats easily avoided) love t'internet.

What is so great about the isle of man income tax is that those who pay it feel like they are helping out, can see where it goes, and they are not greedy. we could learn a lot from the island.

That is an extremely good point. Yes, we could do with more transparency in enabling people to see where their tax goes - whether they approve or not they will be better informed and better able to exercise their democratic rights.
