Hello

I now have a copy of this book on order. When it arrives I'll let you all know what it is like.

[Robin Lumsden]

Publication has apparently been delayed until the end of November at the earliest.

It looks like one of these books where they take advance orders to pay for the publishing!

Hello Robin

Thanks for the information. I'll chase up Waterstones on that, as according to their online system delivery should be in around a week after the order, (I ordered it on Friday, as in yesterday), although I never pay to much attention to the delivery periods as they are inevitably longer than advertised. Still, as long as it doesn't slip beyond the end of November, I'll wait.

By the way, how did you hear that the book hasn't been published yet ?
