I realise that I`m getting on a bit but I do try and keep up,I`m familiar with the new parts of the TT course, like Joey`s, Hailwood Heights, Molyneaux`s but can somebody please tell me where "Conker Trees" is, Parrish and Whitham have been waxing lyrical about it in every report.

Like you Peter I was confused but then realised I was listening to Parrish and Whitham so blotted out the commentary and just enjoyed the excellent slow motion shots thru that section

The K tree is where the kerb jumps out at you. The Conker fields are the farming area it is in (local description of the area)
