Can I brag a little?

eat and drink whilst watching a F1 race at the circuit or on tv never... you have to consume it all before and after.
Oh, I have no doubts about that. I'm sure that, for the right price, you can give them your coffee mug and they'll pour the champagne in it, too (btw, in France they'd probably give you a death penalty for that). But, those acts show that you are not any different than this pheasant. You can also, physically, wear socks and sandals, but there are "rules" against that.

The truth is, that $5000 ticket that you have (at least that is what it, roughly, is in Canada) is, in my opinion, a waste of money. Why? Well, for one, re-read Manchild's answer. You can't explain it any better than that.

But not just that. $5000 will last two people at least two weeks in countries such as Cuba, Jamaica and Dominican Republic, and a week in Antigua, St. Kitts, etc. The point is that we enjoy different things, and we like to spend that money doing different things!

Principessa,

I'm honoured, but I will have to, politely, decline! :(

Two things worry me...that my better half (or 9/10ths according to her) will not be too thrilled with that arrangement. :)

And second, I don't want to get banned :wink:

Cheers

btw. Out of respect to the owners and forum users, seeing how this is an F1 related forum, I will refuse to reply if comments will start a "war".

Redbaron....if your girl isn't that keen on sitting there on front row...I want to be your girl for a weekend
Heck, for the front row I'll be your girl for the weekend.

You might see me in hospitality then because I'll be working there for the weekend with my mate. His other halves old man is a good friend of the head of hospitality. I'm gonna get paid to watch the race like I did in '01! 8) I love it when a plan comes together.
