Laxey Wheel April 2011

Monday, April 25th, 2011

Mr Ian Cottier was the highest bidder in The Big Shout auction 2010 for Dream Catcher and today had the pleasure of turning on the Laxey Wheel for the start the season.
His family came along and a fun day was had by all. Crackers suffered a little vertigo and decided to wait at the bottom to meet the family. What a wonderful view we had from the top of the wheel and Mr Cottier and his Grandson did a great job of making the wheel turn.
Well done and thank you for your donation we hope you enjoyed your day.
