Hi all, im travelling a 5-6 hour journey to get the steampacket at Liverpool to Douglas in my van for the iom manx and classic TT.

My ferry is 11 next Sunday so I guess i need to be there 2 hours before for checking in, boarding in my van etc.

With the travel involved (280miles) and risking a 20 year trip in the making by being delayed, i was going to travel the night before and sleep in my van near the ferry.

I had a look online and can see theres spaces nearby the terminal on the myparking website in an industrial estate. I was going to park up night before about 10pm and sleep there. Ill pay if I need to overnight of course.

Can this be done or is this type of thing impossible with lots of people in the area doing the same. Or is there anything I need to be wary of?

Any advice greatly appreciated.

Thanks
