Well not long now and I cannot wait.

This year because of available sailings I will be on the Island for two weeks so I have decided to this year actually do my bit and volunteer as a Marshall.
Funny thing is until I read the brilliant book on travelling marshals I had always wanted to be one but given what I read I don't think that was a good idea.

What I would like to ask is whether anyone can suggest somewhere along the course where I can get to refreshments and toilets but where its not boring to watch from.

My first thought was at Kirk Michael.

One of my mates has marshalled at Braddan for years but its not the most exciting place to view from.
