[Leica] OT: Completely off - Ted's finger inspired artist - TED

[Philippe]

Dear Uncle, OC, dr, Dad, Ted 

the longer the much better for all of us.
So keep to that drop of Islay a day (drop I said) and everything will be wonderful, Philippe said.

Now to your wishes, that's very generous of you, but we all know how generous the Young Candian lad is :-)
BTW: look here

This is of course a prototype based on an Oly, and as fast as things may go in Wetzlar you might not be served anything made in Germany until the next century. Could you possibly wait, please?
;-)

On top of this, I saw that wonderful youngsters write (beautifully felt and coined) poems in your honor, stay with us and enjoy it to the brim, young lad :-)

A last note; Keep away from forest fires too please :-(
