From the sunny Isle of Man.
You had me until you said that 
Is it really sunny there in the Irish sea? It sure isn't in the nearby
landmasses. I have a friend who lives there and I've never heard him
say it's sunny (windy, yes).
You don't need to be near a large landmass for the sun to come out.
While it might not be as sunny as, say, the California central valley,
in a normal summer we do get plenty of sunshine - generally more
sunshine than the north west UK.
Well that's a tough comparison to win
Is this wiki entry incorrect?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geograp...of_Man#Climate
"The Isle of Man is known for its overcast skies and low levels of
sunshine."
I'm really curious about that, not looking to win a contest with you.
