I got rumbled by the chancellor,she mobbed half of the money I got for the f/4 P,so hard as I could try,there was no way I could stretch to the Nikon 2oo-4ooVR,so I bought a second hand Sigma 500 f/4.5 prime from Mifsuds in Brixham,very nice to deal with too,they laid on a cuppa and a ham sarny when I got there.
