The sun was shining as the Isle of Manx celebrated its national day today.
There was a damp start to the morning, but conditions were perfect by the time the formal part of the annual open air Tynwald ceremony got under way.
This was how Marian Kenny reported on the ceremony on today's Mandate at One (extended audio file):
