I am so cross that I could just sit down and cty. I may just as well close the door and walk away. :mad: :mad:

What's up Bookie? :grouphug:

Oh dear Bookie, what's happened?

There is a book published this weekend on the Dirty Thirty. It's the story of the local miners' strike written by a local author. It will sell like hot cakes. I ordered them about 6 weeks ago. Just rang the distributor and they are hoping to get them to me 'sometime next week'. :mad:

I have had 6 people in for it already. It has been on Radio Leicester. Great.

chick-chick

Congratulations Luc, and I love the name :j

Queen.Bess

Oh Bookie, that is so frustrating, esp. when the publicity is out there and people are wanting to buy it. I do hope that when the books finally get to you that the 6 people return, buy a copy, then tell all their friends to also buy a copy too!

You would think that with the state of everyone's finances, that companies would bend over backwards to help sellers make their money, which in turn will make money for them! It's strange where some people's priorities lie - like keeping hold of a £650k annual pension with no thought for others!!

Well I hope they pull their finger out and get it to you ASAP! And ask if Radio Leicester could run the article on the radio again next week!!

Grrr, that is rubbish.

Ooh I 've just noticed I now have 3 medals and am now a 'Serious Money saving fan'!! Have been a 'stalwart' for far too long now! Have a bit of a way to go to be 'fantastically fervent' like Red, but maybe one day!!

Right, just caught up.

Lenny - *hugs* I went with one of my animals to get put down, couldn't breathe from tears. My thoughts are with you.

Luc - Congratulations, glad Nathan James finally decided to show up.

Lou - Kick the person who said you have a fat !!!

In other news, work did pay me, I'm a little short because of the weekend I had mumps. So that means that if I want to actually eat this month, I'm missing a couple of credit cards repayments. But I'm not too worried about that.

I told the publisher at the time that the distributor he had chosen was rubbish!
The publisher is only in Nottingham and could have sent them direct. :mad:

On top of the news about the blooming council it's just all too much this morning!

Well done! I should probably do more work and less posting! :rotfl: BTW I agree on Ice Age - love it! Was there a third film out?
