I'll have to check out Nicholas, though I have no OMoney until after
Christmas now. Maybe I'll find the elusive 21/3.5 for 50 quid there...
The do sounds like a good one! Hope you're recovering from the
hangover. You might appreciate this legendary retort given to the
original 'tired and emotional', Foreign Secretary George Brown, at a
diplomatic reception in 1968:
'I will not dance with you for three reasons. First, because you are
drunk. Second, because this is not a waltz but the national anthem of
Peru. And third, because I am not a beautiful lady in red; I am the
Cardinal Archbishop of Lima'.
Cheers,
Roger

I have just been in London - I should have suggested a meeting, except I
am seriously "tired and emotional". The London universities have an air
squadron (ULAS) with its town HQ in Brompton Road and we had an
end-of-term "revue" there last night. Aunty Betty would not pay for a
night's hotel, so we (the staff of the squadron) kipped on the chairs
after the revelries. Some brave souls went with the students to
Hombre's (?) off Oxford Street, but I find socialising with 'young
people" tiring enough as it is, and 0200 bed time is late enough for me
now. I have not bopped since the last one - in October ;-)
The reason for this post is that I visited Nicholas in Camden High St,
near Mornington Crescent tube station. It is a bit of a shambles, worse
than Campkins on King's Parade in Cambridge, but it looks like a
treasure trove of stuff. I wanted to feel a Contax G2, but it was
locked away and could not be retrieved for half-an-hour; my tiredness
and emotion persuaded me to head off to King's Cross for the train
home. Nicholas is well worth a visit for OM stuff in my opinion (see
adverts in AP).
