    Was browsing the web earlier and came across this site,

    http://vegastodayandtomorrow.com/

    I know a lot of you will probably have already seen this site, but it's got some quite interesting facts on it, like the Titantic being able to fit in the Bellagio Lake.

    I love THE map for updates on what's being built and what's in development.#

    Some also love the Coke vs. Pepsi map.

    Hi Steff, took your advice and order the ACG from Amazon it was £15.25 though. Turned up today and it's the 2006 version icon9.gif so all the coupons had long expired. Was really wanting to use the one for La Cage show, so suppose I'll have to try to get half price tickets from one of the ticket booths. Suppose this is a bit of warning to others, when I placed my order it was def. for the 2008 version.
    Not a happy bunny. Sounds like I having a go at Amazon (their service is usually beyond reproach: suppose it was just a mistake on their part), did get a free return on the book though.
    Hi Sue,
    Sorry to hear you have had problems with amazon sending you the wrong version of the book!
    Just in case you missed ferf's post - the earlier in the year you order the book the cheaper it is - ie you can buy ACG 2009 from November 2008 (ish) onwards and it will probably start around £7 (ish) - the later in the year it gets the more expensive it is. I know this wont help for this time, but maybe bear it in mind for future visits (I am planning on ordering my copy in November come rain or shine!).

    The common law of business balance prohibits paying a little and getting a lot. If you deal with the lowest bidder, it is well to add something for the risk you run, and if you do that you will have enough to pay for something better.
