Warning to older fans
It has come to the attention of the powers that be that certain items in the possession of older TT fans may be in beach of the TT branding code. As you are all aware the TT is now a "BRAND" and as such people using or displaying the TT brand are liable to prosecution. Please check your clothing and if this label appears on the inside you may be up for a hefty fine.

Don,
In the 40's & 50's they became known as "footing" coats ( remember them) We still have my dad's coat.

Now now, Pat - you don't mean to suggest that your dad was a cheat?

RE: Warning to older fans
Just thought you older people would like to know the following :-

Opening time for the Pensioners Club Douglas

Mon - Sat 2.30 pm - 10.30
Sun 12.00 pm - 10.30

I believe they have sarnies on a Sunday.
When people say one thing and mean another its called politics, when organisers say one thing and mean another its called a mistake, when the ACU say one thing and mean another its called information.

RE: Warning to older fans
Well we will take your word for it, but I note they stay up pretty late drinking so I might no be as bad as it sounds.
What the hell are "sarnies"?
In Australia they are sunglasses.

Come to think about it, since so many good folk were deported to Oz for stealing a loaf of bread, many may not wish to be reminded of such stuff.

Cargo is mixed up as we all know and he confuses Australians with New Zealanders and Welsh people. He is just trying to pull the wool over your eyes.

You'll recognise Cargo (alias "Bernard") in this video clip. He is experimenting with advanced sheep-circuitry to power an entry in the TTxGP, but trials are not going as wool as expected.

To be perfectly honest, I reckon that Castletown Corner last year produced far superior photographs . . . . . . . .

Another still from that first aid video staring Cargo demonstrating the mouth to mouth procedure. As usual Cargo is on his back.

Some people will do anything to get an audience, but Larry's half summersault and three twists would be hard to beat.

I have had the the aforementioned DVD postally delivered but my machine refuses to accept it. I wonder if it rejects the whole idea of helicoptering a smiling casualty, nursing nothing more serious than a cauliflower ear, to Nobles. Cool2
