[OM] Zuikoholicism strikes again!

Well, it has happened again.

Two days ago I saw an advert for an OM4Ti with 90mm and 35mm lenses
for £750GBP.  The advertiser lives nearby so I called and he
confirmed that it was an Olympus 90mm lens, so I went over to look.
It wasn't: it was a 100/2.8 silvernose with a 35/2.8 and a pristine
4Ti, abolutely mint with box etc... he said that only 11 films had
gone through the camera.  I did not want anything but a 90/2 so I
looked politely and left after discussing Mercedes cars (he had a
little C-Class coupe).

Then today, I called and offered him £550GBP for the lot (why?) and
he accepted £600GBP.  So now I am the proud owner of a mint 4Ti with
flashbulb attachment, grip and Eyecup 2.  The lenses are also mint.

I must now sell some stuff to finance this near-impulse buy!  I did
not want a 4Ti and I cannot afford it, so why is it now in my
possession?  Answers on a postcard, please, to.....

Chris
