Looking at your gear, it seems like the 24-105L would make the most sense. Although it would help to know what you like to photograph.

With no other info, I'd also agree that a good medium focal length-range zoom would be the go...but who knows; you may be better off with a CPL or a set of pocket wizards or a tripod. Very difficult to guess.

So...what do you shoot?

Sounds like you're similar to me in that your subject interests are wide ranging...in which case I reaffirm my suggestion to consider a medium-range zoom.

Unfortunately, there's quite a few to consider!

The cheapest I can find, don't want to risk ebay for a £1000 of lovely hard worked money, is £1229, just for the body alone

Any reason not to go for the 24-70 instead of the 24-105? Just wondering as you already have the 70+ range covered.

true.. i think i go for 24-70 rather than 24-105, is 24-70 cheaper than 24-105?, thank you Neilwood32, £1200 is still lots of money :S i have camera, that the important haha, i just will save hard for lens and mac, by then i got them, 7d might cheaper haha :D
