Just sayin on radio that Jason popped off the chair with Si at Parliament Square. Back on all fine.

[oldbelly]

Good to see Ben and Tom out, on the first decent looking F2 LCR, ever.

[Linds]

Jason is fine, up and about and wanting to complete the lap but has been told he's not allowed. I think the only thing that will be bruised is his pride as I believe he works in Parliament Square

From Winnie

Was good , we been playin with the wildlife ! ! :-0 , dont think its an endangered species ! Lol

[oldbelly]

Any news on Team Past it ??

[steve-e]

Robin and Annette by all accounts stopped at Governors. (Sister Jack the roving reporter's report from John Saunders).

Roy/Dave hit a wall at Glen Helen which is why they retired, both fine.

Shandie/Lee did eventually get off the line, but then stopped again.

77 hit a pheasant, obviously both still ok, Gary and Winnie hit a blackbird (not the honda version) which explains the earlier text about the wildlife.

Pete Alton is proper chuffed, 2 laps complete and through the speed trap at 132.4, he's a happy bunny.

The reason the sessions were swapped was to let the superbike guys get onto the island from thruxton.

That's my quick report, will work it up as the week continues, and Sis will update us a bit more later this evening

Everyone is well and safe, which is THE most important thing.

Update from Ben and Tom.
"Nice and Steady, very damp"
