WT.... that would imply, from my readings of posts, that one Julian Mayo had been recently in the environment "local".....yes?
I have a suspicion as to why one JM is "MIA".
Some 3 months ago, with my surrupticiously obtained, but valid, press pass, I yet again had the pleasure of casting my old eyes upon a creature designed to bring a man to the brink of madness. I have not seen such a thing since I first cast my eyes upon my first Hispano Suiz.
Bernice is nowhere to be seen!!!!!!!

Speaking of which.......welcome to the VIP Tower, Conduit; care for the grand tour?



Anyway, the tower's six floors of luxury for the News On F1 members here and it is going to be a fabulous place.......the first floor is essentially the lobby; those spaces you see along the walls are where portraits of some of the greats in open-wheel racing, past and present, are going to be placed(any suggestions should be forwarded to the concierge.....









Then there's the fourth floor; more lounges, along with lots of wi-fi routers for Internet access(so we can keep up with the sport we all love, yes? ) along with a library of sorts(where's all those sci-fi books I've got on request here......










Now if we can only decide when to open the VIP Tower........

Evening, barkeep.......one iced tea, in the Harrington glass. 
Man, I tell ya', I didn't think you could fit a couple of hundred people into the tower's restaurants for the grand opening; correction, grand re-opening.....this tower's definitely open for business!!
Anyway; has anyone seen any of the other regulars?
Oh well; they're probably circulating around.......anyhow, drinks for the weekend are on me!
