It's been difficult for me to write a testimonial for Eileen that doesn't come off sounding like a geeky pickup line or marriage proposal... But here she is, equally at home behind her inquisitive Nikkormat, contemplatively peering at the world through the top of her Mamiya, up to her elbows in a dark bag or a tankful of developer. Probably just as much at home patching a flat or replacing a bottom bracket with a pin spanner and lock ring wrench, too.
