Carry on!!!

I am happily carrying on.

Good products. Good service. Not always, but often enough.

I'm not paid to say nice things about Germany. I just like that country after living there for a couple of years.

We really didn't know exactly what to expect, although we'd been told that they were nice people and so we might get lucky.

And we did.

Two of my favorite posters together!

I will tell DFW you sent a DU "hi"!

I explained that Peggy was only here for a couple of days. They said all they would do is send it in to the Nikon place in northern Düsseldorf. They didn't handle business from individual customers, only local dealers, but they might make an exception for a tourist passing through on a recommendation from a local store.

It was only a 15 minute drive, and we didn't have a fixed schedule for the Neanderthal museum, so I drove out there with Peggy, Lionel Mandrake and the injured camera. Sure enough, the people there were just as nice as the people in my local store had said they were. Their customer service rep came down, took Peggy's camera with her, and returned maybe 20 minutes later with her camera as good as before, and with a few updates to boot. They weren't even equipped to make up a bill, as their business was only with stores that sent in their own customers' cameras for repair. So, they just said no charge, and spread the word that we care.

NIKON CARES!

We'll probably have to pay for the new signs that say "Nikon Headquarters ahead", "Nikon HQ next right", "Only 100 meters to Nikon", etc.

I sent her a copy, which she appreciated.

I first read that as "thanks to Nixon".
