Three adventurers from the Isle of Man are making final preparations for the journey of a lifetime next week, driving an old banger 4,500 miles to Timbuktu!
Juan McGuinness, James Jones and Ben Watterson, will be raising money for charity and are hoping well-wishers will turn up next Wednesday evening, when Ramsey MHK Anne Craine waves them off from the Sea Terminal.
Juan and Ben (pictured) talked to Manx Radio in a windy Douglas street:
Former chief minister calls for balanced approach to climate change action
Howard Quayle says achieving net zero must not bankrupt the nation
Play 'just as important' for a child's development as technology
DESC says digital devices are just one part of a much broader learning experience
Manx passport applications moving online
