I think it takes a year before the paperback comes out but I am going to try and find it next week for her, I am determined to give her that book.
Of course. I see from A**z*n that they are waiting until October for the paperback, I thought it might be quicker.

Well, several of them are from folks who've been & gone, so it's what you make of it really. Treat success and failure just the same and all that crap. But thanks.

What's the most frightening words Philip's bodyguard will ever hear?
"I'll drive..."

, Good luck with tomorrow morning then
If you don't hear from me again, you'll know what's happened
People who don’t use punctuation & can’t spell
Every television this morning is down-the satellite signal is lost and we've tried everything to try and get it back(as advised online) but nothing. Luckily we have one television with Freeview so can watch ordinary television but its a nuisance because I and my mother don't have Freeview so we're stuffed! However we will have to phone up tomorrow morning and see if we can get an engineer round and no doubt that will cost-not a great start to a new year!!
possible aerial damage mate?
I admit I'm not too thrilled about sloppy spellers. I always took great pride in being a good speller, even if it's a pretty low level superpower in this day & age. However -
a) they often mind being told off about it
b) they often say it's the phone's fault
c) they often say that spelling is a side-effect of something legitimate that escapes me
d) they often say "get a life, pal"
e) life's too short sometimes
f) they're being held hostage by an evil mastermind and have deliberately slipped a misspelled word into their post in the hope that you will notice it as a secret signal and launch an international rescue mission.
