ho_co Posted May 23, 2011 Share #122 Posted May 23, 2011 Bravo, Bruce! Thanks! How did it arrive? Mail? FedEx? DHL? Yee-haw! Hope is rising in Texas! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
brucek Posted May 23, 2011 Share #123 Posted May 23, 2011 The postman delivered it, and a signature was required. No Pocket Book though... Bruce Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
farnz Posted May 23, 2011 Share #124 Posted May 23, 2011 The postman delivered it, and a signature was required. No Pocket Book though... Bruce Mine came without a Pocket Book too so I emailed Erwin and asked how to acquire one. He emailed me back that a small number of the Pocket Book was produced, they were randomly shipped with the Compendium, and they are all now gone. If anyone who received a Pocket Book is happy to part with their copy then please PM me and we'll work out a deal. Pete. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
IkarusJohn Posted May 23, 2011 Share #125 Posted May 23, 2011 Mine arrived this morning, way, way down here on the bottom of the world. It was sent TNT Post, and arrived NZPost. It's HUGE! A quick flick through, showed what a fantastic job he's done. Yes, it needs editing, but it has a very appealing personal flavour to it which I like. Mine has a personal note penned on the front page, which is touching. I would happily offer to assist with editing any future edition (for typos rather than content). No pocket guide with mine, but I have the PDF version of the guide, so I'm not bothered. Cheers John Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Norwegian Customs must be slow readers. Although, on second thought, there's rather a lot for them to read. Pete. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, it arrived there today, and should go through quickly: No VAT on books in Norway. According to tracing, transporter TNT was notified on the 16th, but did not pick up the package until 18th, and it arrived in Norway today. I guess this is normal speed for a non-express shipment.
