I ordered the book on December 27, and it's scheduled to be delivered January 9th.

Hi all
I've had time to have a brief look through my copy now and it is really informative. Just like the wee book was, but much better, 'cos there is much more in it! Plenty good stuff for beginners and seasoned researchers too I think.
(If everyone on here bought and read it I think the number of questions on TS might just plummet and we could find ourselves spending a year with our feet up!! )

Best wishes
Lesley

HEAVEN FORBID LESLEY

Just couldn't have all the Mods and Admins sitting with their feet up
We would just have to think of something diabolical for you to do.

HAPPY NEW YEAR

Hi All, there I was thinking a good saltatorial read on its way, when Amazon decided to postpone delivery by not a day or two; looks like others are buying the book up and we in far places take second place!

I buy books from Amazon frequently and when they say 4-6 weeks it usually means the book is out of print.

Hello Thrall,

I got the same message as you here in Australia.

I hope it isn't out of Print already.

Let us see who gets their copy first!!!

I got the same message here in California. Book delivery delayed 4-6 weeks. Was originally scheduled to arrive January 9-12.

I've just had a look at ordering from Amazon.co.uk - the book is £9.99 right enough, then they want 1.99 for sourcing the item plus whatever the postage charge is (free if you order over £15).

WHSmith will take the order online and deliver to your local store for free, with delivery 1-2 weeks. We shall see

Hope I'm not breaking any rules by mentioning that shop.

Best wishes

Hi Pinkshoes

If you have broken rules then the same applies to those who mentioned that on-line book supplier who pretend to be women with only one mammary gland so they can shoot their arrows - or - the longest river in the world. I'm never sure which applies.
