I should be able to make that one, at least Bill.
Harrods might once have been a pretty risky place to let your wife
go, alone ... however, I visited the ground floor a few weeks ago and
I was struck by how tacky it looks. It even has a department for
merchandising Harrods - bags pens etc...
Mr Al Fayed has made part of it a shrine to Dodi and Diana (no
comment as I might sound insensitive), but the remainder reminds me
of a mall, rather than a high-class department shop. But it had been
some 20 years since my previous visit so perhaps I am merely out of
touch - Bah Humbug ;-)

I think a London meeting would be a great idea, but suggest fixing a

If you were to have a second or third meeting, this Texan will be in
London on the 30th of August (actually the 28th & 29th also, however
the 30th is a Saturday) and would love to hook up with some locals
for some Olympus related activities. If I were designing it I would
do a morning shoot finishing up in time to have lunch. When I
talked it over with my bride, she said it that would be fine with
her as she would just catch a cab and go to Harrods. I'm so lucky
to have a partner who is so resourceful as to arrange her own sight
seeing trips while I go play with my cameras. Is it safe for her to
go to this Harrods place alone? Bill Barber
