Yep Christa the lens came a few weeks later as the 135-400 was stiil in Japan. I can be very generous with gifts,

Yep you don't have to break Santa’s ankles or leave cookies or write him a thank you note. I have got to a stage where after so many years of pouring money into this bottomless pit called living that you have to get something out of it for yourself and let’s face it its unlikely to expect your family to spend that type of money on a single gift. ( Well maybe the kids after pouring money in that dark hole called education. For so many years.) Mmmm… “Dear Santa I saw a E30 the other day and I wonder if …….”

I always like the ones from Santa to Dad. He's generally very generous, and always knows exactly what i want :-)

Yep yep, my best gifts are usually the ones I buy myself, I always know just what I need and want. LOL

One like this could fit Me as a gift and believe it or not I wouldn't complain :-)
Well, anyway, we say: when you get a horse as a present you don't examine their teeth, but we say this as shorted version.
Nice picture, Collin, and gift as well.
