What a nostalgic morning it was when we conglomerated at the Grandstand to do the tour of the course.
I was up at 4AM and saw the glorious Manx dawn break up Glencrutchery Road....Some of the trippers should have been there for that experience alone, the experience we miss these days. Your nose and ears cold but one can feel the sun warming up as it rises...
Thanks Nick and Cargo for your excellent running commentary. I hope Cargo now wins after all the racing tips we got.
My only disappointment was that me, after 60 years, found myself lacking in memory so I did not do so good in the quiz.
There were times when I could pull those sort of facts outa me head....
I therefore say "the quiz was hard and I had a late night before, and an early rise".
Thanks especially to the honest soul who found my wallet which I had left on the breakfast table !! Great breakfast !!
Finally thanks to Helen who did a great job of organisation, it MUST be repeated next year but you all get up earlier !!
