Saw this website advertised in Classic Racer, so I thought I'd have a butchers.
Images all copyrighted of course, so not for posting - but what a great site to browse!

Hi Barry, That's Bill Snelling's site, the guy who does the excellent photo exhibition at Laxey Woollen Mills each TT.
I'm not 100% sure but I think the photo collection is actually owned by the IOM government and Bill is custodian, I got Bill over to the forum a couple of years back (He posts as Billbomann) but I don't think he gets on here very often.
As you say its a fantastic collection of photo's.
You coming over for the classic TT/MGP again this year?

Hi Paul 
Ah yes, I remember the handle "Billbomann"! Great photos indeed 
!
No mate, I won't be going to the Classic TT this year, although I plan to get over a few times after I retire (in two years) when I can go places whenever I feel like 
!
I must say, that if any forum members are remotely considering going over (for the Classic TT) - JUST DO IT, you'll have the time of your life!
Words can hardly describe all that jaw-dropping machinery, the enthusiasts and the atmosphere. I still feel the "high" ten months on from last year - I thought I'd died and gone to heaven 
! If everything is booked up now for this year - there's always next year!
Cheers,
Barry.

Just up the road from me Phil, I'll try and get down for a brew, and likewise my kettle is always on, along with some of Okell's finest in the fridge if you find yourself near Governors Bridge end of Glencrutchery Road
