Steve Barbour Reminded me: "and surely Ted, you are not forgetting that exquisite night in Casablanca..." Yes right, Humphery & I had an extremely wild night off camera. However I can't add any more as I'm a happily married man now! Before the adventures of that evening I was merely a youth of little worldly experience. But finished the night an extremely wiser "man" by morning. :-) Not to mention a slight hammering in the head. Sorry no Leica was available to record the wild and "interesting moments!";-) ted _____ From: leicareflex-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:leicareflex-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Steve Barbour Sent: Saturday, August 25, 2007 8:44 AM To: leicareflex@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [LRflex] Re: Whitby, owls and fireworks.
