Where's the paddock? Where we used to wait for Mick Grant's autograph?  Where they did the testing during COVID or on the footy pitches?

Yes.

A VERY interesting thing about her is that she bankrupted Katie Hopkins. 

And he should know. 

Gary Thompson isn't part of the IOM government. 

Since local lad Dan Kneen was tragically killed in a qualifying session for the TT races. Sad day for the island.

It’s better that he is an expert with the subject of motorcycle racing

Hmm. 

How come Tim Glover is doing commentary for motorbike racing on MR? Have they got some time off from MHKing at the moment?

Ones a rock band with a thirty year back catalogue and the others an electronic dance band that had a few hits in the 90's. Hope that helps.

Yes, I'm being a bit hard on Primal Scream there, they're a much classier act than Utah Saints.

If it stops them regurgitating those bloody annoying Annie Lennox loops she can keep it. 

Actually scrap that, I'm mixing them up with Utah fucking Saints. Might as well be them though, they all sound the fucking same.

Not sure but they've asked her to bring it back by 9am as they need it for Primal Scream later.

"He said he was innocent but the jury found him guilty after a trail".

I wonder what sort of a trail he left? 

It's the Greater Manchester Police. 

Well anyone continuing to use it in that context is as daft as he is.

Seriously, if they can't make the signage any clearer, when are they going to implement a system that is fit for purpose? 

Actually, having read the story, it seems the driver was stopped before getting very far so the system was fit for purpose in this instance. It just goes to show though, that signage alone isn't enough.

Tbh in my view they couldnt make it more obvious this year with the signs, barriers and the likes.

And yet, it isn't working. 

Well I think it's a jolly nice bridge.

From the IM constabulary site:-

Despite the fantastic effort by

@iominfra

with the signage / layout at the Creg we have had to stop a vehicle driven by a local driver from driving the wrong way up the mountain. They have been dealt with accordingly. The signage etc couldn’t be much clearer.

Just wait for the more orthodox practice sessions coming up. 

Yeah well there were no practices yesterday evening and the prom was deserted when I went to Tesco.

The prom has backed up every practice and race session since before I was born.

I found the prom free flowing this afternoon.
