In Munich many of the locals decide to leave to take their holidays during the Octoberfest.
Too many tourists making fools of themselves.
However the locals all return and the ones I have spoken to just shrug their shoulders and say “Es ist für die lokalen Geschäftsleute gut." (It is good for the local business people).
There are always the few vocal exceptions but personally I have been received by the vast majority of the Manx people with genuine warmth be they TT enthusiasts or not.
Perhaps a cold shower and a glass of tolerance may be in order for Ingrid and Jerry.
