Another lobster tale!

by isleofman.com 3rd October 2008
This week's story about Blue the lobster, who was spared from the pot because of his colour, and has since found a new mate at the Sea Life Centre in Blackpool, prompted a listener to get in touch with another lobster tale!

Denis Learoyd from Ramsey remembered seeing a similar creature in the aquarium at the former Marine Biological Station, 60 years ago.

He told John Moss he saw the blue lobster during Sunday School outings to Port Erin (audio file attached):
