Yes, if you follow that route you end up at the link Peter sent me, which was for pre-orders only?

This link is to a pre-order system to reserve a copy for a Pound Sterling.

Reserving a copy isn´t really the thing to do now the book has rolled off the presses, is it? Now´s the time to buy!

The book is being printed now...so some may prefer to reserve pending notification. However a) all monies are refundable and b) those who have paid will get theirs sent out straightaway as against those who have reserved but invited to pay the balance due.

I understand that your order has gone through Mr S!

[David_Hayward (RIP)]

The books have been printed and are being bound, and should be sent from the binders to the office today/tomorrow ready for posting.

I am hopeful that we can then go forward to the next book on wartime GM plants in England.

Just keep your fingers crossed that Royal Snail Mail does not let us all down. Some postal workers are on strike so as to cause as much mayhem as possible... Books paid for I am told are to be mailed in packages and the aim is to get them out before the guaranteed Christmas deadline. Quite an operation! Although printed in Kendal the books were stitch-bound in Edinburgh and have to be sent down to Appleby. Still, you can't complain as this is a good quality production: paper, binding, cover, jacket and these things take time to get right and done properly.

I gather that those who have ordered but not yet paid will have their copies sent as soon as confirmation/payment has been made.

Then I need to start drawing up the printed correction sheets and updates as all the comments start pouring in!!!!

Royal Snail Mail has triumphed!

A team managed to get all of the books that had been ordered for Xmas delivery out and the cost of postage was stupendous!

The next book is planned and if this present one is a success then we can get it published as well. In the meantime, as a prequel to the Pearsons story, buy VINTAGE ROADSCENE issue 110 January 2009 issue out now.
Please.
