Jammy buggers I wish I was coming out with you :cry: my last IOM visit was the centenary in 2007, I took my then 12yr old grandson for a ten day camping adventure on my faithful Kawa Z1300 (wish I still had that bike) best holiday ever 8-) This year is out for me as I had to use my years holiday entitlement while I was having my bionic hip done :( Don't forget when you get out there to post daily updates with pics. Enjoy yourself boys I hope the weather is kind for you.
Oh and keep an eye out for mad Germans on the wrong side of the road ;)
They're rubbish them Jap bikes lad they won't last five minutes! you want to get yourself a nice Royal Enfield!
A quote from my old dad 8-)

I started out with nothing and I’ve got most of it left!

Richard come out the day after.
Alan,you would not believe the lack of options from here.
There is a boat out of Dublin,on the Wednesday,21st,returning on the 31st,of August,and nothing else.!!!!
Or one leaving Belfast on the 28th,returning on the 4th.
Belfast is almost 300 miles from Cork,each way.!!!
The Belfast route looks the most likely.

What is the accommodation situation like ???
what the fuck was that ????

Getting worse. We're staying at Ramsey.
I'll dig out the details, and if you contact them they might know someone local who could get you in, unless you want to sleep with Baz?

Yep, that's right. Richard (itsnotateapot), and Baz and Carmel are staying at the same place, and if they've got a large garden shed John Jenks might be there too - if it's a big enough shed of course, as he's a big lad!
