No it wasn't me griping about severely off topic stuff.
There has been a real lull in the list for three days Roger. No real Leica
topics striking any major chords in our Leica hearts. But here is some real
worldly stuff that is beyond my immediate hemisphere! The idea of a whole island
filled with off duty sex workers got my attention! What would they want to do in
their off time? Have a union meeting!
What might be a real thrill in this context would be to NOT have sex!
 We've got people on the list who know there way around the planet a lot better
than me. We are learning things about how to handle our Leica selves in exotic
locales. I'm all ears! And I don't think I'm being hypocritical because I never
gripe about off topic stuff. I think what is on topic is what people want to
talk about. To someone as obsessed with Leica photography as I am it all comes
back to Leica anyway. I'd love to photography those off duty sex workers playing
Vollyball with my Leica. Just love it. F8 and be there.
And don't forget to have sex yourself Roger but thanks for the reminder!
