This 620 is my first BBR Image I am looking to get a 4003 in BBR next. There is just something about the way the blue grades off into bluish mapleglo in the middle, and yet lets the grain show clearly through....

Paul, I know I'm gonna be laughed at by all of my US and UK buddies. This morning was 5 degrees celsius, which converts to 41 degrees F. That's bloody cold over here! Image

And here in the "cold north" we've had 29 degrees celsius the last couple of days, hottest in Europe!
This concludes the weather report, now over to the 620'ies.

Ooohh, that is a beautiful 620, Melissa! Or is it a 620 - is it unbound? I saw a jacket like that for sale on eBay some months ago too!
