However it was her interview and she did ask about the Lagavulin very pointedly! :-) She probably has friends who know good Single malt scotch! ;-) Besides it wasn't an interview about Leica equipment which I've praised for about the past 18 months every time I turn around during interviews about the DVD film & my wicked wicked photo life. Leica and in particular the M8 is well shown on the cover of the DVD and several places in the film. Trust me Leica could've had far more publicity! So one radio interview isn't a loss nor cost for Leica. As every time the camera was shown and comments offered they were made quite freely. Without compensation. ted
