23121 forum posts 1360 photos	Was that a comment on my linking of the Vallorbe catalalogue, Larry ? For anyone with limited funds ‘drooling over it’ is all that’s likely to happen, pending the Lottery win. … a handful of files from that long list would be a substantial investment, but it’s always good to see things done properly. Polite folk might prefer the phrase ‘window shopping’ MichaelG.
