Subject: [Leica] Australian LUG meet in Adelaide

I just got back from an utterly delightful afternoon at Marty Deveney's 
house in Adelaide, South Australia, where 10 Australian LUGgers gathered for 
a 5-star gourmet lunch cooked by Marty and Anita. The food was good, the 
wine was good, the beer was good, the company was excellent, and the 
traditional stack-o'-Leicas was substantial.

This lunch isn't why I flew to Australia, but it's certainly why I was 
looking forward to the trip.

I suspect that Geoff or Marty may well upload some photographs soon. I more 
or less forgot to take any.

One sad side effect of all of this is that Geoff Hopkinson has pretty much 
convinced me that my 75mm Summilux and my 24mm pre-ASPH Elmar are road kill, 
and need to be replaced with the Summicron versions of same. I may well have 
some lenses for sale here soon.
