Dan my man,

My wife likes you because you are a Glennfiddich man! :)   She doesn't take
too kindly to two things: Any other Scotch and me spending money on new
camera bits and pieces.

If the scotch is different her usual comment: "That isn't any of the
horrible smelly stuff like Lagavulin is it?"

Usual comment on the gear: "I suppose you're going to tell me it'll make
you a better photographer? And if that's the case why do you keep telling
me it's the person holding the Leica that is most important? "

See what happens when you're on your way to the 50th wedding anniversary. :)

I like Glennfiddich just depends on the mood I'm in, actually that's any
time for a good single malt! However, <<a Scotch Collins? >>> Really Dan!
:)

Well OK you get her to hold whatever you want and be steady with it,
becasue when I'm a 100 it ain't going to be a camera I'll want her to hold
steady!;) :)

Please appreciate that I'm ever the positive thinker and they'll have an
improved Viagra by then. :)  Of course a Leica manufactured version. You'll
be swallowing little red dot ones. :)
