As some of you know Andy ie http://www.ukmotorbikehire.co.uk has offerred to lay on a barbie at the gold cup, providing all the grub and then peeps can make a donation as they think fit - proceeds to be split between the Ian Watson supporters fund and the IOM helicopter fund -I am patron of the Ian Watson supporters and will be along to explain things but there will be prizes and racers attending.

We've decided to do a practice run at the *** of the north

Plan is Andy will l rock up on sat morning and set upstand then will spark up huge barbie on Saturday night from about 6.30- 8.30 ish - everything provided - followed by the odd sherbert and a possible trip into town to do some dad dancing in the trendiest club

Sunday morning 8-10 he'll do breaky and brews

Donations to the charities, advice, encouragement and *** taking welcome but remember Andy has the tongs.

During both days Andy will be set up by the trade stands with a couple of bikes on display and will dish out brews/soup.

Thanks so much to Andy a great generous sentiment.

If peeps could reply and give us a rough idea of takers it will help with planning - the more the merrier and its all for a good cause.
