    So I get a text from Colin yesterday....

    "Your Luke just arrived. It's beautiful"

    So I wait for another 8 hours until I finish work and dash off to his place. A very sleepy Colin opens the door (as it's about 10pm at this stage).

    Anyway, this is what I now have in my hot little hands:







    Unfortunately, all I have on me at the moment is my phone camera, so they're not the nicest shots. Also, the colour in the first one is a little off, but the second and third pictures show a pretty decent representation of what it looks like.

    Thanks immensely to Colin and BP. My compliments to the chef!

    Also guys, Colin told me to say hi to everyone. He's not on here much anymore, but he's thinking of you!

    Jamie.

    That color for whatever reason fits the Luke very, very well! The gold and the smooth lines just work perfectly, very nice!
