Yep you lot are right it is a age thing lm 72yrs young and still think I'm in my 20s/30s but sadly I'm not ive been going to the TT since 1962 I missed i think 1968 due to college exams but I've been pretty much every year since,  things have changed for me the new format where you only get a couple of days off is to much but if the racing is on you want to watch it and also it's getting very expensive I'm booked on for this year but I'm waiting for a hospital ct scan result so it might change for this year I hope not.
