That's not even the most left field thing I sit at work thinking about! I was actually just chatting to someone who had been on a corporate schmooze up at the Grandstand yesterday and was on the start line. We somehow then moved onto chatting about Pride and then my synapses started linking the two for some reason! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Banker Posted June 6 Share Posted June 6 Visitors well up on previous years but according to some there’s no one here!, despite weather interruptions it’s been a great TT https://www.manxradio.com/news/isle-of-man-news/almost-38000-people-travel-to-island-by-ferry-for-this-tt/ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Numbnuts Posted June 6 Share Posted June 6 Bookings up by quite a lot at the Campsite I’m involved with. After working on the bar for 3 years now quite a difference in drinks purchased. Seems bikers now like wine , who’d have thought lol. Our campsite though doesn’t encourage rowdy behavior so think the hard core bikers are more likely to be found at the likes of Quarterbridge and Glenlough. Despite the weather being a bit iffy seems a very good TT . And surprisingly Steam Packet seems to have coped remarkably well when you consider issues previously. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Based upon the fact it was 8C last night at mine, have you considered selling Mulled Wine? 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fred the shred Posted June 6 Share Posted June 6 Yes the figures are great from the Steam Packet and when the air arrivals are added on it seems like a very good result. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
