New York December meet up, which day will it be?

Guys, somehow I thought it was next weekend!

It was a rotten day to travel from philly, in any event - I would not have felt like fighting the train. Last time it took me four hours to get back, in nice weather.

Sorry someone stiffed you on the tab, I am sure they just left without thinking. I almost forgot on my way out last time - although I didn't!! If I had forgot, it wouldn't be evidence of malice, just that I could leave home without my ass, if it wasn't glued on.

Definitely not cool. Hoping it's just an oversight. Perhaps we should do a "pay as you order" the next time.

Absolutely not cool and definitely a weird oversight of mine! Not something I've ever done, just a complete blank on my part! I think a combination of the beer and all of the cameras distracted me sufficiently! Deepest apologies and will get you the $20.00 ASAP.

When you wrote your earlier post about "where's my loot" I was scratching my head and had no idea about what you were referring to and thought you meant the pictures of Cal's F3 with the goat skin that he wanted me to take (which is why I posted one of those pics).

As I mentioned in my PM, this is never something I've done and the last thing I want to leave as am impression on a great group of guys. My sincerest apologies.

You definitely have much cause to give me a bunch of **** for the next meetup!

Well, thankfully it was just a mix-up. No big deal, but Nelly (waitress) might want you to pay up front next time Jeremy! 😉

That'd be a small price to pay for stupidity :bang:! Very kind of you to cover for me.

On another note - Philippe suggested we have some photo critiquing at the next meetup. I know there is a branch of the NYPL close to Puck Fair. Maybe we could secure a space for a presentation and look at people's work?
 
Great to see everyone before the holidays.

A photo review?! What a great idea before the annual RRF beauty context in Feb.

Did anyone get some good shots of the gears yesterday? Wanted to see how the SLRs crashed the RFF party.

And Tung, we missed you yesterday and the F6 made it to the table this time too. PM me if you want to play with it at another time.

Wasn't a Merry feeling in my store this past weekend. I made a $250.00
Christmas arrangement and I left it on my counter, next thing I know it
was gone! 😱 Later I found out a customer switched the tag on it for $59.99 😡.
All the arrangements are 50%off so she got it for $30.00 bucks!😡
The F3 looks real good Cal to bad we can't get higher rez J-Pegs on this site
next meeting for sure!

Bob,

We are converting F3 HP's into F3P's and the "P" is for "Prada." LOL.

Bob,

On an up-beat note, I was a little late to the meet-up because I kinda had a bit of a micro meet-up at Adorama. I ended up finding a rather unusual bag that is made by Leitz made of brown soft leather that is especially made to hold two rigged M-bodies.

I'm able to fit a M4 with 35 Summaron and a M3-DS with 50 Rigid without the hoods mounted. It seems that Leica not only designed the Monochrom especially for me, but they kinda also designed this bag especially for me. How did those Leica engineers figure out way back in the vintage days what gear I would accumulate? Those guys are mighty clever.

Wow I'm sure it a great bag, I got a new bag as well. It's a Eddie Bauer
Canvas bag, I wish it was a bit bigger but I have to give it a go.
