My problem George is since 1982, everything I've bought, I've kept.
Silly really.

I fly from Qatar to Bahrain in the morning to attend a funeral
A good mate of mine who was drinking a pint in the Awali Golf Clubhouse two weeks ago, had his life support machine switched off last Saturday. Funeral is this coming Saturday.
We don't know what is round the corner. To waste time over issues can't be a good thing. We are all different and that's why we are here on this forum.
Respect to you both.

Gary

Yep, istD for me too, since I bought it a few months ago. Mostly used with a Pentacon 50mm f1.8 (with K adapter) and Pentax 28mm F f2.8 as the standard AF prime.
Images matter more than automation and technology...

The 31mm Ltd. Because it's the best, and because I think it may stand up better to the rigours of a desert island than a zoom lens, even a WR version.
It's also a good focal length for a single lens.

What would your lens choice be if it could only be one?

P30e for 12 years with the two kit zooms
Then various Fuji bridge cameras.
Then back to the fold with the K10D (bought with the 16-45 and 10-17), most often carried with the fisheye or m 50 1:7 and extension tubes.
Go to a shoot. You know the location and subject matter etc but can only have ONE lens......

The only lens I would take, would be the 35mm macro at the moment.

Or if a moment of complete madness should overtake you, maybe even sell it too me.
I regret never taking up an offer of 400quid 6 months ago
What more do you need, and you can use it as a scope on the camera to scan the horizon for ships!
