Hopefully you won't disappear somewhere to that island in the pacific you keep referring to every Friday. Good to see what one curious person who just needed to know about trimming film leaders for his newish LTM camera can do to unite a disparate group of occasionally grumpy folk. Truly a wonder and a heartfelt Thank You for all the hard work and money and time you have put in herding Leicats.
