Torture!
The thing is she won't let me even hold it till Christmas day!
Are we talking about the lens?
Well to p!$$ you off even more I got the K20D and 16-50 + 50-135 lenses and I got them before xmas, I even got to take them to Dublins fair city where the girls have big......eyes, and both HOLD them and PLAY with them........but I can honestly say that to snap Molly Mallones statue I could have done with a wider angle

Two good reasons why you need the lens and Santa can perhaps pack up the box?
You definitely need to take full advantage of the guarantee and not waste a month. You also need to check the lens is OK so it could be returned if necessary during the short statutary period.

Or at least give it a good workout and then ask Santa to carefully pack it back in its box on Christmas Eve :

Due to us getting a dog and me having to stay with it here over xmas (no dog passport for another 3 months) while my wife and son are back in the UK I will be lucky to get a card .. never mind a xmas dinner.
BAH, Humbug.
On another forum that I visit one wife bought her hubby a Canon f2.8 300mm, another bought a Canon 40D and another a Nikon D90.

I got back here Tuesday after a few days in the UK and can honestly say its been the coldest and wettest I have known in the 18 months or so we have been here.
It actually seems colder here because we dont have central heating so im sitting on the settee with a quilt wrapped round me and the dog on my feet.
Suppose he is useful for something anyway.

Sounds like an invitation for us all to go and cheer the poor chap up. I'll bring mince pies - where is nearest low cost airport?

Last year the local "English" shop was charging the equivilent of £3 for a box of 6 mr Kipling pies.
Amazing the British, they move to Spain for sunshine and cheap living and then spend all their money on English food
Well the torture is over even though I only got about an hour in low light trying out my new lens. I'm impressed with the quality of this lens and feel it won'd be my last Limited! See example link
