Maybe we can get some stickers made with the ROTTTF logo with the little man with the swag bag and stick it on everything or every place that rips the race fans off. SO basically that would be everywhere then.

OK then lets make one that says DROTTTF. Doesn't rip off the TT Fan. With a big happy smiley face. That way all the bike fans will know where to go.

But still think the other sticker on every fuel pump would be so so good.
When people say one thing and mean another its called politics, when organisers say one thing and mean another its called a mistake, when the ACU say one thing and mean another its called information.

NOTHING NEW THERE THEN 30/40 YEARS AGO I USED TO GO OVER ON THE THUTSDAY BEFORE PRACTICE WEEK TO GET A FEW VAN LAPS IN AND YOU COULD SEE THE ******* FRANTICLY RUNNING AROUND WITH THE LADDERS UPJARRING THE PRICES READY TO GIVE THE MUG PUNTERS A CANING, FORTUNATELY IN THOSE DAYS RUDERS COULD GET ALL THE FREE LIQUID YOU WANTED OFF SHELL FOR BIKES OR VAN/

THIS YEAR COULD BE THE BIGGEST HIT FOR THEM SINCE THE 60s AND 70s.

At least one well-known local supermarket is allegedly sliding prices up to qualify for their ROTTTF sticker.

Diesel now up to 102.9p per litre in one Douglas filling station. That might prove a little more prohibitive to the spillers.

Has anyone ever analysed the spillage to see if it is normal tax-rate diesel, or the "pink" stuff, as used by farmers etc? It may help to track down the perpetrators?

You can check out the cheapest petrol and diesel prices in your area here.
It's free to register and I've found superunleaded at 96.9 a litre near to me thats 6 pence a litre cheaper than the place I normally go.

And it works for the IOM too
