Oops, I've just noticed that I managed to insert my unfashionably large
.sig before the second smiley (which also seems to be incomplete). This
has probably led some of you to think I was being perfectly serious here

As others have pointed out, there is little to choose between the Tamron
and Tokina offerings here, and one should go for whichever one finds
first at an acceptable price.
