Sorry, didn't realise what I said about the 16-50 would come over all cryptic, it's just that I've read more reliability complaints about them than about any other Pentax lens

See for example on here:

and on PentaxForums:
2, 3, 4

Not only, but if atm its £709 at SRS, only a month ago it was almost £1000. I know prices are not going to go up right now
Tell that to whoever at Pentax decided to near-as-damn double lens prices right in the worst part of the recession

There is no other wide fast option apart from the DA*16-50.
And those have reliability issues which would make Sigma green with envy

Looks very nice indeed - and on a purely anecdotal level I now know that I'm not the only person on the planet to have bothered going to Mont St Michel

Photobucket is best used as a file dump. In other words, you shouldn't use it when you expect your viewers will be looking at your images ON photobucket, but when all of your use will be embedding your images on other sites (forums, your blog, etc.) In that regard they are actually very good because the free accounts get oodles of bandwidth (about 10Gb) and (unlike Flickr) you don't have to link back to Photobucket when you embed your images.

This is hugely useful, especially as regards sellers of used equipment which are generally harder to find on The Almighty Google.

Back on topic: SRS, SRS, and SRS.
