MY PERSONAL NOTES:
Mount Murray is a country club 'in the middle of nowhere' very private and very safe for parking.
There is a bar, etc and we could take a mini bus into Douglas if we want/need. I prefer this purely considering the safe parking conditions.
I've booked the Mount Murray.

Seems I've missed not just an episode, but a full series here.... what happened to April (thought dates were fixed)... and to the big MX anniversary gathering?.... Confused Co. Clare!

It turned out to be a nightmare due to new IoM transport authority requirements and no support from Mazda

. Too little time left to turn it into a massive event. So we decided with the organising committee to just go ourselves and email all the other clubs & see if they want to tag along. :idea:

PLEASE NOTE: I have not made any bookings either on the ferry or in the hotels at this time. I will wait to hear from you if you are happy with the pricing and I will need an indication of numbers so that I can hold an allocation of rooms at your chosen hotel and spaces on the ferry.
