> Jimmy's Christmas bonus...
I like that Trimble seems to have got the memo and designed a carrying case insert that fits the equipment to be carried. That's always been a strong suit for Leica.

Is the plumb bob hidden in that yellow bag-like thing?

Is it wearing an old lady shower cap?

OK ... I admit, I'm jealous.

Ours arrives early 2014; let us know what you think.

Maybe with everything in the case we can avoid having the crew forget things at the office. The radio scanner should even fit in there.

we have been hiring an R10 for a while now.

I'm not convinced by them - the electronic bubble is a pain, and they don't reinitialise quickly when lock is lost. The battery is another new style, with another new charger needed.

my money would have gone into an R8, had one been available

we described it as something a little more intimate, coloured and ribbed for her pleasure...

I don't know how I missed your "shower cap" post from yesterday, but we think alike! (See below.)

Just a heads up....

We have one in already for a battery door breakage.

Turns out they must be a tad delicate.

As usual, just depends on who is using it 😉

I'm looking forward to the firmware upgrade to "surepoint" features when
we get our battery door repaired!

Happy Holidays!
