Debs & I will be attending as usual along with support van and spares.
Have booked the Mayfield Seamer near the campsite for the Saturday night. Will sort the Cockermouth accommodation today but hopefully this will be the Rose near Chez IBS

I plucked the pre 65 figure, because they generally have no power. and no brakes before 65, And it allows a greater choice in vehicles to choose from. |

Yep Martin, Rose Cottage Guest House in Cockermouth-that Mac mentioned- Friday Night, then Esplanade Scarborough Saturday Night(couldnt remember what it was called hence confusion maybe), as there were no rooms at the Seamer by the time I tried to book..
Then stay over back in Cockermouth for the Sunday Night- at The Rose Cottage again so doing it West to East and then Visa Versa back..

I've found that some hotels do not give all of their rooms over to booking websites and hold some back. It's worth a call. |

Thanks for the tip Mac ,having seen it saying fully booked I found,the Esplande is half the Seamer's price for a single room,so I guess itll do for the one night.

Hi sorry I am gonna have to bail again. Whilst the leg ulcer is getting there it only takes a knock to set em off again,I actually had four this time which metamorphed into a large and extremely painfull one. however it was really brought home to me that ok it was only one overnight in hospital last year, that all in all whilst the Spirit is more than up for it the flesh may well not be.
I am however still on target for the Manx Classic TT in 4 wheels..

Well there's no chance of seeing Robert fly over the handlebars this year, as he has pulled out, the madass is not fixed,
Who is going to get the bad luck this year I wonder?

Surprised he even attempted to repair that bike. Least Debs won't have to lift it's lifeless frame into the back of the transit this year. Regards a successor to the bad luck I'm kissing a fairy under the bridge on the IOM just in case :eek: |
