We're staying at Glen Wyllin campsite, near Kirk Michael.

Paying our respects

Waiting for the clouds to lift, half hour delay to proceedings.
I was heading for the Creg, but they randomly close the mountain roads an hour or an hour and a quarter before the full course road closure, so this is as far as we got.

Not a bad spot to be marooned at though.

Tony, that last photo of The Bungalow brings back some memories, as that was one of the places I watched the racing from too 😎😎

Duffy, Glen Helen looks like a good spot 👍👍

Thanks for posting the photos 😁😁

We are at Parliament Square today. The lady who is putting us up works for age concern and they are doing TT Teas and cake so we are getting priority treatment Image

I offered the wife a choice between driving or chairing, but she still won't let me have one.
