We are in Grandstand K Chris, along with the rest of the Bruce McLaren Trust group. Not sure if we'll bump into you at all, but keep your eyes open. At least we know each other by sight now! Although we have tickets for Saturday/Sunday, we have no idea what the charges are (if any) for Friday, which I'd like to use for getting around and taking pics if at all possible.
It's terrible being a newbie and probably only getting a once in a lifetime shot at this event.

I'm not sure Stars n Bars has reopened. It has been having a major renovation. I am back to Monaco tomorrow and will let you know. It was to be completed by 1 April but looked a long way off 10 days ago.

Travelling around Monaco using Streetview has got me quite excited...

'fraid not Dan, we're going to have to endure the gassy stuff. We found a great little bar up in the old town near the cathedral last time, we'll have to see if we can find it again.
