0800 Monday from Douglas?

Also, what happens if I get a "plus one" in the meantime?
Don't laugh - it COULD happen!!!
Is the price paid for the car or per person?

The price is for you and the car Neil. If you bring anyone else theyll have to pay.

Slowly but surely

Surprise guest has agreed to join us on the Island for beer definitely and if the weather is kind to us he'll be tempted to give us a run for our money on the TT course.

BBQ at Hethel tonight so will do some more sorting tomorrow.

OK you lot

Have checked out some nice accomodation with off road parking and with availability.

I will pm you all with the details.

I need to know tonight if this is OK so I can confirm the booking. You'll be then committed to pay me if you drop out.

Might have forgot to mention rate does include full breakfast.

I can strongely recomend the Sulby Glen Hotel on the north of the island the locals are really friendly the rooms are comfy and the food is fantastic and its right on the TT circuit.

If you guys can put up with a forum newbie tagging along I'd quite like to go(If I can get my elan running sweetly)

Provided I can get the time off of work and I can talk a mate into sharing the costs I'm up fot it.

Just out of interest I have contacts at a clay shooting school near Douglas would any one be interested in a clay shooting lesson/experiance? I will be dropping in for a go on either the Saturday or Sunday and to be honest the more the merrier. cost is around £40 (I'll have a go at negotiating a group discount but I have the bartering skills of a rhino) for 50 clays and expert tuition. Its good fun, reasonably easy to get the hang off and not in any way Gung Ho infact quite the opposite.

My island contact has commented on our accomodation

"It is ideally situated for a car club as there is a huge car park which spills straight onto the TT circuit, starting with an exciting "hill climb" ( 60 mph limit) up past "Sarah's Cottage" then onto totally de-limited miles of superb high speed motoring, until you reach Kirk Michael village."

Rumour has it that we will also be meeting some LEF peeps on the Island. Should be some do?

Any other interested peeps need to start making bookings as price of ferry will increase dramatically nearer to the event.
