I was actually able to give them some missing information and some old photos to help them in the restoration. I even got to eat figs from the same tree as I had when I was a first grader.

I lived in the UK for about 12 years, and although I wanted to go to the Isle of Man, but never got around to it. Your post has rekindled my desire to visit there.
