007 debut gets Gaelic translation
One of Britain's best-loved spy stories has been translated into Manx.
Ian Fleming's Casino Royale - which introduced the world to James Bond - is now available in Gaelg paperback.
Culture Vannin was given a 'licence to print' the 1953 book by the deceased author's estate, and translation lovingly undertaken by Bob Carswell.
The book is available to buy at Culture Vannin's headquarters in St John's.
It's one of a number of modern works spun in Manx - as Culture Vannin's Language Development Officer Adrian Cain explains:
Cost of off-Island healthcare treatment almost £2m higher than forecast over five-month period
Options for Tramway Terrace expected in the next eight weeks
Organisation welcomes news of Milan extension
AI workshop findings to shape forthcoming national strategy
Island residents urged to report possible Asian hornet sightings
