The Place

She was just saying paddock still not busy, prob due to no saturday practice and the boats being running late

and lack of sidecar entries,the paddock will be dead !

Correct
A lot of room and only more arrivals today.

And about the atmosphere, it's really quiet, because of the weather : wind, rain, wind, wind !!

And at Castletown, it's worth. The paddock has no trees to stop a bloody and freezing wind coming from so far away.

I saw auks waiting for the ferry to go southbound !!!

Never mind ! Tomorrow is another day and everything will really begin on Saturday.

Helen, has Sir Stan arrived?

winnie is on his way ............

still on my way ! ! Missed the 2 pm boat as traffic was bad on the m6 . So sat in pub waiting for 2 am boat . This could get messy .

Hi folks! Stan Dibben has been signed up as a guest at the TT and has been dragged round and round the paddock, drinking tea! We have visited Teampastit, where Robin feels like a teenager, the Mad Cows, where Michael Lines poor little car has been transformed into a Maisie lookalike, and Pete Alton's HQ where some purloined orange netting holding the crowds at bayamong others!
In spite of the cold and occasional blustery showers everyone is in good spirits and the international contingent includes French, German and Scots.
The weather forecast, is, unfortunately, not too good, but at least it's not offering a repeat of the gales we had a few days ago. The burger vans and the beer tent are functioning, Radio TT launched this morning, and the sound of outfit-building is heard all over the paddock.
This year's improvements include better wifi (I wouln't know as I am using a dongle and sitting in the holiday home doing this) and much better roads in the paddocks.
First practice is Monday night, and I will report on my return from the Mountain Box.

Sister Jack , your little bruv Steve , will be over later, now you look after him. no drinking or getting drunk.either of you
