upper 7 or 11 ?

hi all, flying to mco from gatwick monday,(keeping fingers,toes,e.t.c. crossed its not v-top) gone online to select seats and outbound i have the choice of row 7 or 11 in uc, having always been in my prefered row 8 or 9 in previous uc flights.
i recall thinking on my last trip in june that row 8 was as far forward as i would like to be due to the first two rows (6&7) being quite close and a little to intimate
for my liking, i have never used row 11 as it is right in front of the bar,
cant decide which is the better seat, opinions greatly appreciated !

b.t.w. note to virgin, please provide more uc seats on the mco run as with only 14 seats in this cabin it seems very difficult to get them without booking months ahead !
as i speak there is one spare uc seat, and that will likely be gone by the time i decide between 7&11 (11 reserved at this time )
i am pretty sure the demand is there, the last several flights i have taken on this route upper is always full, pe quite busy and economy very quiet.

if travelling on my own, i'd probably go for 11 as 7 A & K are quite close.

I'd stick with 9A good choice. Far enough away from the bar but also enough space between you and 9K.
