I recognise that 'bored' look - my husband gets it quite often BUT then he just takes the opportunity to sit down and smoke another ciggy - he knows I can't moan if he is being 'a good husband'.

My order has just been confirmed - lens plus filter - so excited - can't wait for it to arrive. Thanks for the comments on this forum - might have missed the chance to add to my lens collection if I hadn't come across your dicussion. But then again - I shouldn't spend money I don't have, maybe I should have hinted for Xmas - never mind - done now!!

Thank you for the welcome - how polite. I have been watching the forums but never felt I had anything of importance to add - this one just made me laugh - best tonic after a very hectic week.

That was great - strange what some people have the time to produce.
