The situation will be complicated by the recent loss of a vessel due to a collision at Liverpool. Heard rumour today that it might be written off...however, another will be hired for the TT...but they must have to wait to see what they get so they can schedule. The last thing they or the passengers needed in this Centenary season.
Delay - ian huntly - 21-02-2007
I 'phoned them yesterday and they told me there is a delay with invoicing but those of us who have placed a deposit will get their invoices quite soon..
Don't panic Mr Mannering....we'll get there !!

on bbc site it states it's being mended in dry dock...but if it's written of we should see if we could club together and buy it and fix it ourselves....where'd you put the "Q" plate tho?

Sprayin' grafitti Gary at your age :oops:
Seriously it's a big thank'you to all the Manx volunteers who do so much behind the scenes. Un-publicised work, but not un-appreciated by the masses on the 'big' island.

Did you used to deal with the TT Programme a few year back..... Your name is very familiar to me!
YUS - ian huntly - 01-03-2007
Yep, I contributed a lot of bits (photos, storys and predictions) to the TT programme for a number of years in the 80's, (I was alone when I picked Roger Burnett to win his TT) when it was put all together and printed here in Reading, Berkshire.....
I was also afforded a supreme accolade when Brian Crichton of the Classic bikes magazines did a full page in the programme with pics of me taken with riders over the years, on my 40th year as a TTFAN..
Here 20 years later at "60 years a TTFAN"...do they care, am I bovvered, !!
When the programme went to the IOM for production, the new lot didn't appear to need some of us who had been personally involved with the TT for many years and had first hand memories.
Many programmes now appear to be written by people who's only contact with the TT or other racing is by, with or from computer retrieval or by nicking other peoples storys !!
See http://www.bbhmg.com when you have a few hours spare !!
I also have a loft full of TT memories !!!!
