Leica M9

[Rob MacKillop]

Tonight, for the first time, I held a Leica M9 in my hands. Now I understand. Everything else is crap. Must sell soul to buy one, although I don't think my soul would raise enough cash. Must sell everything!

Seriously though, it really exuded quality. All you M9 owners out there (Pete, and anyone else?) you have a beautiful camera. If you ever want to give yours away to charity, just let me know. I can wait...

My soul would probably amount to a kodak instamtic 33..oh I've got one of those..............I may dream of beautiful things and have thoughts of happiness but sadly thats where I have to stop...........I probably wouldn't be able to do such a piece of beauty justice...............

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Precious....

Justice has nothing to do with desire [devil]

[Rob MacKillop]

That doesn't help, Pete.

 

[Kev Pugh]

Oooh My Presious!!! like the ring...........Frodoe must carry the burden........

 

[Pete Askew]

Good price though.

How did the course go this evening?

 

[Chris Dodkin]

Good idea Pete - diversionary tactics

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Ha! Well, I'll be doing a write up later this morning. Suffice to say it did not go well!

That's cause the teacher is male

I always try to find a female teacher to be bullied i mean taught by [doh]

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Wrong. She is most decidedly female...

 

[Ahmad Bhai]

Hmmmm was she not strict enough ...

 

[Paul Lange]

Well it's probably not easy teaching a load of blokes who keep wondering off to the dark room to compare telephoto lenses.

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Mine was the biggest....I mean the Mamiya, of course!

This is a dangerous road that you are travelling, Rob.

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Yes, and with no transport!

 

[Pete Askew]

So, all we need to do get your latest CD to No 1 for Xmas then!

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Exactly!
