Very quick comment from me because I want to go home to bed!

Before last year there was no car parking at the Grandstand, so we discussed using Nobles Park with Douglas Corporation.

We hire the land for a considerable fee, the usage charges offset the cost - dead simple! If we had been given if for free, we could offer the car parking for free - again dead simple. This provides car parking for those who want it and it is cheaper than parking in Douglas in any of the pay car parking during the day. For those that aren't willing to pay, nobody is forcing anyone to use it, but for those who criticised the lack of parking provision in the area previously, now have an option.

Hilary - nothing to do with the ACU, and nothing to do with the Audi's - Audi pay the DTL not the other way around.

Hope you all enjoyed practice, short delay, but great weather, great riding and most importantly, no incidents at all to report.
