I even have a dedicated gallery to that 2006 Photokina - I drove over for the day from the Netherlands where I lived at the time. There are several pics of Tom, Tuulikki, you and other LUG/LHSA luminaries: https://www.greatpix.eu/Other/Photokina-2006/ I also remember another meeting, in Amsterdam, we stayed at a hotel near the Vondelpark, but I do not remember if it was before or after that Photokina.
