Just looking at the live webcam in Ramsey, and it's chucking it down.  I feel sorry for all you campers, and really hope the weather improves soon for you.  It's going to be much nicer next year !
I also have a double bed free for bikers needing shelter. Ring Clare on 491196. I am about ten mins walk from the grandstand.

TT visitors were able to find shelter as local churches and community groups opened their doors, while a specially-created social media page matched stranded campers with hundreds of residents who offered them temporary homestay accommodation.

Sandra Diamond, one of the co-ordinators of the TT 2015 Helpline Isle of Man page on Facebook, said: ‘It’s an amazing thing that happened and the community really came together to show the best of the Isle of Man.’

She said the effort is still ongoing as visitors will need help to dry their gear and repair their tents.
