True. That should be it. I bought my first Aero there umpteen years ago.

Great Place, although I usually lose myself in all that chaos. I love the whole "Gärtnerplatz/Glockenbachviertel" area. I usually stay at the "Deutsche Eiche" (with my wife, which always creates some unrest with the crew - you know...).

Yes, well-known area, well-known hotel. In the past, work colleagues came to Munich for a project and unknowingly reserved the hotel.
Of course, it wasn't a problem at all, but it still caused a smile or two.
I have lived in Lehel and Maxvorstadt. All not far from the Glockenbachviertel, where we went out a lot.

My brand new Thedi fits like I've had it for 10 years.

^40’s Knopf to ship the 2005ish LW Suburban below to its rightful owner (I proxied for them). This is the nicest LW I’ve ever handled in roughly 5 attempts. Stu should really bring back the cowhide. It’s outstanding and absolutely destroys the chocolate milk russet HH. I imagine it’s new owner will be extremely pleased! My only fee for proxy shipping is I get to try it on:)

That LW is amazing. Suburban correct? Is that the 44 that was recently on eBay?

To be honest I'm not sure where it's from. It's a cowhide 42" and I'm surprised I could get in it. I usually take a 44" from LW. It is indeed going to @mendelboaz and I think he's going to be delighted. If Stu were to offer this hide again, I would break my rule and 100% get a ryder in it. It's a gorgeous coffee bean brown that literally glows. Some of the nicest leather I've handled from any maker, past or present.
