Looks like the newcomers weekend in Feb is OFF... with the proviso there may be one in April. Further details as it becomes clearer. There are still the discounted fares for anyone coming across and I will still try to find you accommodation.

Email me if you need to know more helenbmerry@manx.net (Please don't PM me, the box keeps filling up.. and I want to keep all correspondence regarding newcomers, so email please!)

Don't panic... you can still come, but I'm not sure if/when you would get recompensed for fares, and it will be cobbled together rather than the sleek, professional thing it has been recently! I am hoping to get some sponsorship and do something with borrowed cars / minibuses, home made soup and people offering accommodation. There is also a possibility of a fully funded weekend in April... April is good in many ways... better light, longer day, good (?) weather, but it is difficult to find a date which suits everyone, as the racing season has started.

(The sleek professionalism is provided by Sophie... not me!!)
