The brief peak at your 135/1,8 was a lot more than what I could handle. I went strait home, had a cold shower, and said "Tommeltott, slikkepott, langemann, gullebrand og lille petter spillemann" 10 times. I wasn't able to concentrate on the spells, so it only made me think about Josteins FA* 28-70/2,8. I also had strong flashbacks about a mint FA 35/2. Then I had a close inspection of my unpaid bills. That set me strait for day or two.
Thank you for not letting me see the rest of the bag. That was very considerate of you, it may have turned me into a zombie.
