If you haven't already done so, go and have a look at <A HREF="http://www.manxscenes.com">www.manxscenes.com</A> a local fireman's fantastic photographs of the Island.

Thanks for that site Helen i had it saved but lost it somehow its a superb site.

This site is for you!!

How thoughtful of you to think about me, Helen. I did find my way into this "living" site only just a few weeks ago. I down-loaded the beautiful shot of "Sun set over Peel Castle". I keep this as a Wallpaper to remind me of my first visit to the TT in 1967. I was camping at the Peel camp site and did take in a few sun sets. I wonder if the oil stain from my old '64 Bonneville is still there in the grass somewhere. Ah well, nostagia is not what it used to be!

All part of the ttwebsite service, Chris! I think we should link the site to ours. I hope to meet Peter while I am over for the TT.

Helen, are you an early riser or do you live in a different time zone? I am GMT +3hrs, 2hrs ahead of British Summer Time. The "week end" here is Thursday and Friday. This makes business dealings a bit of a strain as one has to be always available. We would be lost without e-mails and mobile phones, I cannot think how we managed before. (If you can go back far enough, it was all done with Cables/Telegrams and Carbon Paper.) Yes, now is a good time to be living.
