No pitlane07,not a sad old git,just a chap remembering some :good ole times:.My first tt was 1959,3 day trip from FLEETWOOD ,10 years old. Missed the junior ,ran home from school to hear 10 minute bbc news ,Murray Walker telling the tale,saw the 3 races on wednesday from Nursery bends,then saturdays delayed senior from Hillberry,taxi back to finish to see John Surtees bing lifted from the MV frozen to the bone,and then that long horrible trip back to Fleetwood,so much sick on the floor you could barely stand up. Never missed for next 40 years,then everything got the same.going back this year for manx ,my son has an entry,my interest is returning.AND YES,I heard the maroon from Nursery and Hillberry,like you,some things you never forget.Oh God,maybe i,m a sad old git too. Well,i know where there,s plenty more so the company,s good:ob Mc rode like a demon that day. Did i mention the stench on the boat? That,s something i,d rather forget
