Yep, the Agatha Christie......I picked up the Hemingway and Agatha Christie (1st and 2nd), along with the Medici and Octavian (1st and 2nd as well)......I usually got bored by the time #3 came along....

Problem with me is that I actually like to use them!

I collect signed mountaineering books. Here is a first edition of The Ascent of Everest, the official account of the first climb, signed by Sir Edmund Hillary.




I also have quite a few hockey pucks signed by Hall of Fame players.

That would compliment my Sir Ed autographed ticket stub...

I guess it's a love of precision engineering. A tool, but one built to be better than it needs to be.

To the uneducated eye a watch is a watch, a gun is a gun. To an aficionado one is a $100 beater, another is a $100,000 work of art.

I shall say no more to keep your thread safe!
