Cabstar I think you need to update your tag line!

The place was crawling with people, literally (see #3) so took some while they were there and some when they had gone.
Like this varied set. Not sure if this is somewhere I have been. Was told it was known as the "Druids Temple". Never the less interesting.

Also a K-5 (body only) with a failed onboard flash, shutter count 3650, otherwise OK (was my backup.)
Also a boxed K-m with 18-55 which probably isn't what you might want, but I'll check the shutter count on request. No known issues with it.
All owned by me from new. Appreciate they're aren't the ones on your list but they won't cost as much either.
Open to reasonable offer(s) for all or any. Decided I can't keep them all!

It's in 'Ex+' condition and comes with the usual good stuff.
Let us know how you get on, John!
I got the 17mm F4 SMC Fisheye from them in February for only £ 219 (thought that was a good price too) so it's always worth watching out for their goodies.

I became tempted after seeing some photos with it on a German forum. The photographer liked using it with the 1.7x converter.
See https://www.pentaxians.de/40456504nx51499/lens-clubs-f46/pentax-a-300mm-f28-ed-i... (use Google translate if you need to.)
Now I'm heading off to weight lifting classes in readiness! 3Kg!
Must say Ffordes have done well out of me this year, third purchase, but can't complain at the prices of what I've bought.

I am writing this here because I know many of you are represented on Pentax Photo Gallery, and because at least five emails to that Gallery have gone unanswered over a period of several months...
My problem is that repeated attempts to post photos to my portfolio on this Forum, are failing, with no explanation in sight. Several months ago, I successfully posted 3 photos there (2 of which have been accepted in their voting process, with one pending), but since then, no joy.
Hopefully someone in Pentax User can give me some guidance on this problem (other than suggesting I email them!!)
