[Leica] Nathan's PAD 12/6/2020: first time in 3 months

[Douglas Barry]

Good to see normal life returning in those images, Nathan. Our 
restaurants are still just doing take away, but we are allowed to swim 
which I was doing, but then the weather changed and it's winter here 
again. I must have missed an earlier post of yours and just saw the '58 
BMW R60 or maybe it's an R50. Those things were designed to pull a 
sidecar so shifting a belly like that shouldn't be a problem :-) The 
only problem those 1950s bikes is the brakes were crap, but it certainly 
developed good anticipation!

Today, for the first time in three months, I had lunch with four of them at Moments, our favourite restaurant not too far from the office. The excuse was that today was the last day of the first week during which the approximately 70 volunteers (out of a total of more than 1000 employees) went back to the office. One of them is Kasia, our Polish secretary, so I, together with 3 member of my team, invited her for lunch today. It was wonderful to have real interaction again.
