    Ahah! Excellent pre-emptive use of 788 (page 304). Good effort.
    You're fooling no one. And wipe your chin.

    There's no real conundrum - all it means is that you'll have to hang
    on until next year to do the TT. Sounds simple enough.

    Looks like you might now be able to have a go this year and still stage

  12. From what they were saying on the Ulster rounds last year it would have
    cost what, around 60-70K to build that?
