    Off to the IOM again on Thursday for the Classic TT/Manx gp Festival of Motorcycling, there for 7days :)

    My biggest problem is my carer isn’t coming with me, hopefully I’ll not forget to take my meds:eek:

    Anyone else going :rolleyes:

    Well we docked in Douglas at 13:15 and it was pishing it down so had to stop on the quayside to put on my overtrousers on. Rukka textile trousers at home.

    By the time I got to Port Erin it was sunshine although wet roads.

    20 metres from the hotel entrance I’m greeted with this view, on a clear day you can see the Mountains of Mourne, Ireland.

    hi tiglet, what a bloody bit of luck meeting you in the manx grand prix suppoters tent drinking tea (which is my favourite pastime these days ) at the manx ,after are meeting in a field at the southern 100 races with your other mates (especially the old miserable git )i am sure you remember him hahahah he did make me giggle thou
    the weather this year was to say the lease shit , did you go to jurby ? ,i did not as the weather was just way to bad
    we must meet up some time in the future and go for a ride out in the uk or further afield which i would look forward to as i we are like minded rip the piss out of anybody (bring misery guts for a laugh)

    Hey @wizard glad you remembered the forum mate and yes it was good to see you again :)

    The old miserable git (bob) I’d only met a couple of days previously as he was staying in the same hotel as me.
    I don’t think he will be invited again by the group he was with which is a shame as he was the entertainment :joy:
    I didn’t go to Jurby on the Sunday,,,,,,,sat in the hotel bar having a few beers waiting for the MotoGP to start :mad:

    Quite a few of us meet up annually at the Forum GMU (Grand Meet Up) see any of the treads headed ‘2019 GMU’ in the lounge section of the forum and get booked in early.
    You’ll enjoy the ride outs, food, drink and banter.

    Ride safe Jason, you don’t want any more of those torpedoes up your arse do you :eek:;):)

    I’ve booked into the same hotel for the usual 3 trips over to the IOM races for next year :) .

    There’s no wonder you go back to the same homestay if that young filly is waiting for you lying on the sofa drinking red wine and only wearing her nightie :eek:

    Hope you gave a good account of yourself;):)
