A3 size, trotter? That's a bloddy big tome, old son. Sounds interesting though; I wonder if I contacted them they'd consider shipping one to me. Mind you the postage cost would dwarf the purchase price.

Prithee tell me, squire: does this publication contain only headlines or does it also include all or some of the following articles' text?

Started a thread on this ages ago - very good value for a decent book.

Just bought it online, £2 and free shipping? Sounds like I'm losing the club money by ordering it..

£15 worldwide shipping Dujon.

The free shipping did it for me too. One on its way...

Wow, thanks all.

I'll contact the club and see what I can organise.

Jon (you know who you are) thanks for the PM. Given the price I won't trouble you, though I really do appreciate your offer; 'twas extraordinarily kind of you. If it's all right by yourself I'll see how I go with the club and then contact you if I have any problems.

Came today (already..) Signed delivery. Great buy for such a cheap price, probably would've been a decent buy at £25 even. Thanks for the heads up trotter, could spend hours reading this...

Mine's ordered and (sort of) confirmed. I'll see in due course I suppose, though the term 'slow boat to China' comes to mind.

Thanks for the information, trotter and Athers. Batman, sorry if I missed your earlier post.

That has got to be the buy of the Century - no wonder the clubs in debt. Shame on all of you for taking advantage of what is odviously a mistake. Ordered mine this morning.

Hip, hip, hooray.

Mine turned up this fine morn. Wonderful. The fact that it took just over a month to arrive is now but a memory. An evening of nostalgia looms.
