I'm silly and glad to be! Of course if you go to place Saint Marc and ask for a coffee or a 12 cl coke at Florian, it will cost tons but who cares? Really! Its Venise and its particular and unique atmosphere. I dont remember how much I paid for anything including a room with a view, only the taxis are expensive. You can spare some coins if you like to swim!

Gone a bit quiet in here, so thought I'd mention that on FB I came across a post from Allan Farrimond who was testing MSV's new Electric BMW Safety Car at Oulton. Says it performs well, handles well with weight low down, but jury is still out on range - only one charge point at the circuit, apparently. Concern about how it would cope if crew are sat with heating or air-con on all day. Pictures of the Beemer I used at Oulton last year for CSCC and the new eco-friendly model...

Not sure if all MSV circuits going this route?
