I'm sure I don't need to say it, but have a great time! If only it was a few weeks later, I'd be coming with you (she arrives on Saturday - at last!!!)

Keep us informed of your progress and keep it shiny side up!

Is Bernie going to have the laptop on her knee, connected to the phone in the secret compartment, taking your dictated messages so that you can talk to us on the forum whilst hoofing it down to Lyon? Please let me know as I have a question about Sony audio gear

Just kidding

All these folks willing you to have a good time Tif - I dont know!

A drive across the continent in an S2000 with your good lady, meeting up with S2000 enthusiasts, F1 in Barca (and Ferrari's flying ), a chum in the Jag F1 pit crew, topped off with a drive to Pau. Now seriously folks, does it get much better..........


(Have a great time Tif and Bernie )

You may joke Pete.... just wait until we get broadband mobiles, I'll be streaming video on the move

Cheers Ian, if the rest of the days are as good as this we'll be happy bunnies. Once again, big thanks to Paul Gainham - the hotel restaurant was fantastic, amazing cellar too

Thanks for staying tuned

Hope you are having a good trip Tiff.

I suggested a driving holiday through France with my wife, but she didn't like the idea .... she said that a Honeymoon should be more romantic than that

All safe and sound just South of Lyon. No major traumas and the French motorways make the UK look pretty silly One small snag - Bob has picked up a nasty chip/crack on his windscreen. Fingers crossed it doesn't spread before we get back to Blighty, does anyone know if Autosceens etc. work in France??

Having a cold 1664 out of the minibar now

Have been home sick today (temperature, hurting eyes, generally feeling 70% and couldn't concentrate). Anyway, got to the office at 7:45 and was home again by 9:15
