Dear Georges,

      There is an English word, 'hobby', that I used to use to describe my collecting.

      But I realised that it is not strong enough, since I'm prepared to fly all over the world, searching for examples and visiting friends, like Giovanni in Italy; Samson, Geoff and Curt in Hong Kong; Tom and Pat in Bangkok; YT, Pin, Richard, Inn Bok, Denis Low and Quentin Loh in Singapore; Charll in northern CA; Steven in Plano TX; etc., etc.

    So I describe my collecting as a passion and as a bit of a disease, but a good disease, even though it can be communicable.  Shocked Roll Eyes Grin

    Best,
Joey
If that isn't a kind of "business"...

Best

Georges
