The Arran Longship Society Invaded The Isle Of Mann Viking Festival last week! It was an amazing week of events and international mucking about. There were vikings from all over. Russians, Polish, Icelandic among others as well as loadsa British and Manx. There was a really good turn out from the locals who laid on a fantastic range of events for us including live music at night (on a stage from Glastonbury) and on Sunday night, The Festival of Fire.

Arran was represented by a delegation from AVLS, many of the usual crew couldn't make it with it being the height of the farming and tourist season but we still mustered a bunch of disgraces to row our longship, which I have to say is definetely the most beautiful ship out of the four longships at the festival. And definitely the nicest to row having rowed in one of the others.
