Welcome back Rich, I havent posted the pic of you in your hospital frock (yet). I hope you use your time wisely to learn how to take decent photos : Atvb Cliff

The 50mm is a cracker but instead of the 75-300mm check out the 55-250mm, probably the best value for your money by a mile from all the reviews and can be had used for around £100 and less :thumbs: Atb Cliff
