Shopaholic? Me?

I can already feel it. The island of man is gearing up for the TT. Roads are being maintained, signs are being put up, there are adverts for motorcycle accident attorneys (which come in really useful especially for Mad Sunday) and people are already having trouble finding accomodation for the duration. The best bit about it is there is a buzz in the air. The place becomes alive with activity. Shops open solely for the 2 week period of TT (and some stay open for the summer too if we are lucky). It is a wonderful time around the TT in the Isle of Man. Now if it were only like that the whole year round. I heard it used to be in a time when it was popular to holiday at home!
