[Leica] [img]s Back from Vacation PAW weeks 26-29

[mark.teampope at ntlworld.com (Mark Pope)]

Thanks to everyone for their comments. I do apologise for not responding 
sooner.  I seem to have spent most of my spare time either trying to 
sort out my new laptop or watching the Tour de France.  I haven't even 
picked up a camera this week, so I'll be looking to my files for 
something for week 30...

Have a good weekend every one.

Best,


Mark
