Good idea...a lunch in a Manx pub or down at Niabyl sounds good to me

and to catch up with the MOO

Hello matey...I trust you are keeping well...all we all need now is a time and a place...it will be a pleasure watching a Yorkshireman spend money 
Good idea...a lunch in a Manx pub or down at Niabyl sounds good to me
Anything sorted yet....
You mentioned Niarbyl....here maybe..
Haven't been for over a decade so no idea what it's like now apart from being up the hill from the bay...
I'm over from the 30th...
The Ballacallin hotel has now closed...there is a cafe down the lane opposite on the cliff edge...good food...great views...
I was thinking of Peel breakwater's fine food hut which you can view here.

Pros
No booking needed so we can just turn up
Food cheap and good (hairy bikers recommend the crab baps)
Cons
Snack bar so no full meals
Outdoors so if its raining we get wet
Your folks will be able to spy on you with the webcam
Sunday 30 August OK for everyone?
Alternatively, if anyone has a better idea.....

Should be fine, used to go there for lunch most race days...and the crab Baps were good...
I've already agreed to be at Jurby on the Sunday...I will have to try and sneak away for a break

I don't get in till 14.15 on Sunday,but don't you mind about that.You just have a nice get together without me.

NOW THEN WIDELOAD
i will be on the rock at 0600 Tuesday the 1st
will be on a F650 DAKAR
Hmmm, seems like Sunday no good.
How about Monday 31st after the racing has finished.
Venue is perhaps a little more difficult. Why not stay with Peel breakwater at say 6.00pm and then if the hut is shut we can go on a road trundle foraging for food.
If it's sunny (3000000/1 chance) we could sit outside the Creek?
If anyone has a better idea, feel free to speak up

Sorry Stan just seen your post.
I didn't mean to suggest Monday to exclude you.
