    return Connection()

@connection.setter  # Prepares stored value
def connection(self, value):
    if value is None:
        raise TypeError('Connection must be a connection')
    return value

@connection.deleter
def connection(self, value):
    # Additional action to do at del(self.attr)
    if value is not None:
        print('Connection {0!r} deleted'.format(value)

deleter(fdel)
