G'day Peter,
I remember travelling Europe in 1985 and losing a roll of K'chrome in the
post/lab. The set has always seemed incomplete. There are many ways to
lose images. If something is idiot proof they just invent a bigger idiot.

I have 2 rolls of K'chrome left, and I'll keep them in the box on the
shelf of memories. My last roll went off to France and never returned.

Cheers

Alastair
