Making ourselves acquainted

Back in the hotel room. We've spent the afternoon wandering around. We've seen some pretty swanky places to eat, some nice cars and even nicer boats. I'm sure that's a vulgar word to use when describing such sublime vessels. We've walked up to the festval hall, overheard some judges, seen the red carpet (and taken a few touristy shots) and then seen the Cannes Lion chauffeurs leave with precious cargo. Tinted windows prevented us from being able to work out who they were. In our minds it was Sir John Hegarty followed swiftly by DeBono and then Friendly Fires bringing up the rear. The sun is still shinning here. I think later we go work on our Gutter-bar-ometer. Make the most of the head start.
