New Website, News & Events, Old Blog

The Welbeck Website will be totally revamped and replaced shortly and therefore my blog and the latest news etc. will be split, so that the news section will contain information relevant to the business while I continue to waffle about rubbish that I hope one or two of you will find interesting.

Although much of the time, I do wonder occasionally whether there is actually anyone out there beside my Indian friends whose comments I think are trying to boost the ratings of some far flung website rather than illuminate my witterings with any relevance.

However, since I opened with 'Toolbox takes a holiday' in 2010 (brilliant irony that this was posted on April Fools Day, unintentionally I might add,)according to the blogger.com stats I've had nearly 17,000 page views, though we've never again seen the toolbox

When considering when to come to the Island and of course the Welbeck Hotel and Restaurant, it may be an idea to check the events happening over that period.

On the IOM Government website there is a comprehensive method of checking for things of interest to you.

  1. When you are many miles from the Welbeck, It's nice to read the blog and keep up to date. As long as you don't stand for MHK in April again.

  2. Ha ha Oor Michael. Someone commented quite recently on the Youtube clip, basically agreeing with you that I should get back in my hutch or along the lines of 'That's all we need. Another self-promoting politician.' I was able to reassure him that it was only an April Fool.
