    No, still waiting - I'll reply to my email from Mens Health again in a few days.:mad:

    Just noticed the books are supposed to be signed too - wonder if Dwain is too busy training for London 2012!

    Just discovered this thread, I was also a winner and have also emailed the elusive Mr Dent to no avail. I probably would have let it go if no one had received their copies, but I will have to pursue it now as a matter of principle!!
    Best wins 2010 - Ipod touch, Ipad, W/end in Amsterdam, 32" TV & Bluray, V Fest tix X 4, Global Gathering Tix, £100 M&S vouchers

    I got this reply from menshealth

    Hi Claire,

    Thankyou for your email. We have been in contact with Simon regarding this, and he assures us that the books will be on their way as soon as possible - they are waiting on new stock to arrive from the printers. If you have not received your copy within a few weeks, please let us know and we wil speak to him again.


    Best wishes,

    MH


    Still nothing from Mr Dent though !

    I would love to know if in fact they have contacted the elusive Mr Dent or are they just making excuses.
    I've tried several of his contacts to no avail. Even contacting via his website gets no response, both by e.mail and by telephone, which seems strange.
    Perhaps we will get our books - who knows.
