| Hi just wanted to say congratulation on your purchase, the SB8's look fantastic, and seems you got that for a steal, only one for sale over here is around $25k Be sure to put some pics up when you get a chance. |

Welcome Akito, just need you to put a picture up now. Don't be shy to ask if not sure, lots on here will help and then you'll get addicted, we like pictures, must feed the addiction.
An italian once told me why you "chink" glasses when making a toast. Its to enjoy the wine with the five senses, you can taste, see, smell, touch but not hear, hence the chink to cover the five senses. We can hear, touch, smell, even taste for weirdos, but seeing is still the best |

Which is why there are hardly any pictures of members on this site...

I'll second that, although there was a start on a "Readers Wives" section a while ago, but mostly it was a wish list of other peoples wives that Readers wanted. |
