It's lovely, but it comes with some limitations - I lived there from 2 to about 22 years old.....go back for the racing every year, but I'm always glad to come back to England.
Met a guy from the TT forum once who talked about his son who was living on the Island, perfect life, garage full of bikes, trail riding etc etc etc..... I started to wonder about my own decision to leave all those years ago until he casually mentioned his son "does suffer depression though since moving there"! As my Mother living their says...."winters are a death".
