RE: Marshaling at the TT
I move around the course every year and Glen Helen is one of my posts every year. Try it is a great spot. There are many different points that you could be assigned to, all very good viewing. Another nice point is that are are several food trucks that set up in the parking lot now that the Glen has closed so there is food and drink available.
Several others that I can heartily recommend are Ginger Hall, Sulby Bridge and Hillberry. There is no food ar drink available at the last two but if you have been working on the mountain that should not be a problem for you.

Hi Nev,
I usually marshal at the Manx/Classic, only went to the TT in '11 and I'm not sure if I worked at Sulby Bridge that year. I last marshaled At Sulby Bridge last August, during practice week, there certainly were toilets available but I don't remember refreshments there. Since I was at the bridge during practice week, it's possible that refreshments are there during race week.

Hi Bill,
If you marshalled at the Manx/Classic for practice week last year we must have meet as I was on the flags at Sulby Bridge for the Full Fortnight, as again I will be this year all being well..
You are right the refreshments are available only for race week. They are done from a bungalow at the Bridge and you can get a nice home made soup there which is often welcome with the weather we sometimes have.

RE: Marshaling at the TT
Nev,
I Think it was Tuesday of practice week that I was at Sulby Bridge. We must have talked and I think it will be easier for you to remember me than the reverse, as I was the only American working there that evening. Every one was talking funny except for me.
I plan on working Sulby on Tuesday evening, Practice week, again this year. I have had my air line reservations for a month now, I'm not counting days yet, but soon.
Bill
