The Isle of Man Steam Packet Company has given its support to an ambitious bid to walk from Land’s End to John O’Groats in a straight line.
The route from the southernmost point of England to the most northern tip of mainland Scotland is well-worn by charity fundraisers, but John MacPhee, originally from Inverness and now living in Dundee, is doing something a bit different with the Long Straight Walk.

The Isle of Man Steam Packet Company brought 14 crew members from HMS Vigilant to the Island as part of a charity challenge.
The submarine crew spent three days in the Isle of Man, cycling around the TT course, playing a friendly football match against Isle of Man Post Office and attending a reception at Douglas Town Hall. HMS Vigilant, one of four Vanguard Class Submarines which are part of the UK’s Nuclear Deterrent programme, has a long-held civic affiliation with Douglas.
