Ah, but James would have to drop me off down the road from Waterstones, at Tesco he can let me out at the door.

Gah, they didn't have it in Tesco so I ended up buying it in Waterstones anyway.

I spent so much time reading the Member's news pages I'd missed I was no longer logged in bythe end of them, My copy of Making Money is waiting for me at Beagle books, pretty great for me!

That's a bit of an understatement, they told me they were having trouble getting lots of new books recently - you burnt razed the warehouse!

I've checked with the 3 bookstores here that usually have
his books. One doesn't even have it in their system.
The other 2 told me it would take 3 and 5 weeks respectively...

I wonder how much shipping is on Amazon.co.uk...

I got Making Money before it came out in Canada and finished it the day after I got it. It was amazing. I have to make sure never to buy a ring too small for me.

By the way it was my birthday 2 days ago.

Well, belated congrats. Mine was yesterday, but no one bought me Making Money. But I know have some cash, and i know what I'll do with it: a graphic tablet, and Making Money. Funny actually... "What will you buy from your birthday cash, darling?" - "Making Money." - "Er... what?"

Finished Making Money. Loved it! PTerry is getting better and better.

I hear he's selling 2.5 million books a year now in the UK alone!

Different shops have different gifts with the book

Waterstones sells copies with 4 Ankh-Morpork bank notes in them.
Boarders sells them with a Ankh-Morpork cheque book included,
and if you buy them from the discworld emporium site you get a Ankh-Morpork cheque but it's alot more expensive from the emporium.
