Ferries resume after overnight disruption
BBCFerry sailings between the Isle of Man and Lancashire have resumed after overnight after they were cancelled by strong winds over the Irish Sea.
The Isle of Man Steam Packet Company cancelled the Manxman's Wednesday evening journey Heysham and its Douglas-bound return due to the choppy conditions.
The morning's crossing to the Lancashire port departed shortly before 08:00 GMT as scheduled.
Forecasters have warned of possible further disruption to travel to and from the island at the weekend, with gales expected to return on both Saturday and Sunday.
The lasted disruption followed the scrapping of all sailings on Tuesday as Storm Bram hit the island bringing storm force winds.
