Hi folks,
Zuikoholism is seemingly confirmed as a significant scourge of a minority
segment of the populace, in its own way rivalling gambolling (have I got that
right? ;-) ) and alcoholism at this stressful time of year.
It bit me hard this last week.
I have just won an OM20 (=OMG) with case, reported with an intermittent
shutter fault, for the princely sum of $NZ42 p+p incl. (=USD 21). See

If I can get this little machine to work, my son will get it in lieu of the
OM10 I
showed him. Having a case with it is a nice bonus.
Also, I finally succumbed to the lure of a Zuiko 200/4, and snagged one for
$NZ 135 (= USD 67 approx). Santa's present to me. The seller also repairs
cameras and lenses and gave this one a CLA prior to auctioning it. ;-( or ;-)

My daughter got a book from me on how to creatively visualise photographs,
lots of nice pics.
And I got a nice bottle of Cognac from my son.
That should be my lot for the year. Not because my Zuikoholism is in any
way in remission; just that the year is nearly all used up. I hope there's
another year coming soon.
