Traditionally, the Isle of Man loves a good dance. We even have our own style. 🇮🇲🕺 On Good Friday (Jy-heiney chaist) islanders gathered to participate in the Flitter Dance.

Ace new reference added to the #HuntTheWren Wikipedia page:
In 1884 30 groups were reported going around Douglas alone, though only one actually had a wren. The others substituted 'a game-cock, rook, or, strange to say, a monster rat'!
