Three hundred mile detour concludes
A junior Manx football team has arrived safely back in Douglas from Belfast - more than 48 hours after they were initially due in.
It's after several of the 19 children on the trip were seen vomiting in the Northern Irish sea terminal, and refused entry onto the ferry.
A 300 mile zig-zag back home ensued - taking the team to Larne, Cairnryan in Scotland, and Heysham, before eventually setting sail for the Isle of Man.
This mother spoke of her relief as the Ben-my-Chree docked:
