'Thousands' enjoy food and drink at Grandstand each day during TT

It comes after some expressed concerns about the cost of catering available to visitors and locals.

Manx Radio's William King went to The Grandstand to take a look and speak to some TT fans:

Owner of The Street Diner John Labella says he employs Manx staff and only uses local produce when at the TT.
