All the info is now live on the Pentax website. The T&Cs seem straightforward and I've downloaded the claim form.

It's not a forum issue.

The Q with standard prime lens is now priced at £549 by SRS, and in stock, but I notice they are carrying details of a £100 cash back offer between 1st NOvember and the end of the year.

That's £449 and starting to look Quite Interesting.

In terms of Military Intelligence, Eric Frank Russell described the essence of the situation as "Baloney Baffles Brains", which sounds reasonable. He was at Sandhurst in the early 1900s so maybe not much has changed?

The answer is to have interests and pursue them both before and after "retirement" - I put that in quotes because it's as much a state of mind as anything else. Just because you stop doing a job doesn't mean you have to retire from active life....

I don't plan to ever retire as such, so we'll see.

It's AF Vic and not really that old but, as you say, not available new any more.

However, it's just possible you might find a new one if you phone every supplier in existence and ask. If you find two, please let us all know!

Three minutes between your post and notification that time. It's not necessarily a senior moment, sometimes these things are subject to delays.
