Luck!
Bulkhead seats are usually not offered for pre-booking as they are kept for families and those with babies and therefore only booked at the airport. If you get there early you may be able to ask for them at check in, but you may have to sit next to someone with a (crying) baby.
Emergency exit seats are also not offered for pre-booking as the airline has to be able to see that you are fit and able to get out of the exit without blocking everyone else. Again these will be offered at the airport but you have to get there early and ask for them.
Best place to pre-book is one ot two rows from the back, particularly in the middle. This is the last place to be filled up and therefore the most likely to have spare seats so you can spread yourself out and have two (or three or four if you're very lucky) seats to yourself. If all seats aren't booked you need to be on the ball and spread yourself out or move as soon as the door shuts - because other people will if you don't.
Good luck
I'd try and get right in front of the big TV screen in the middle - there's more leg room between you and the wall than there would be between you and a seat and you can sometimes lie down on the floor there in-flight.
My brother's an aircraft engineer and reckons that the area above the wings are safest in case of emergency?!? (Though I don't see how it helps)
