On page 17, 4th picture from the left, the pipe above the square silver box is cracked. Does this mean that........?"

Or worse!! "On page 93 you say ..... but on page 38 the picture looks like .... is this a contradition?"

Enjoy the glow now, Adrian. We'll probably make sure the project will never be over!


Looking forward to mine, J

Just ordered the book too. I am lookin forward to reading it this Xmas.

I wish Adrian all the best with this venture. I always say that success eventually rewards someone who follows his/her passion with steely determination and hard work.

Dear Joe,
I hope we have covered all these things during editing. I hope we did not miss anything but I am sure somebody will point them out. However this is good feedback because nobody is perfect. I have just received the office copies by FEDEX today. I have to say I am impressed with how it looks.
These copies will accompany me to the PCA-GR christmas party for some publicity shots.
Ciao,
Adrian

I'm impressed I made it to Barnes and Noble. New York best sellers list here we come. When I make the New York list I will buy you a set of spark plugs Lou.

Ciao,

Something would be wrong at B&N, Adrian, if the book were not there!

Since I just ordered mine via them also, a couple of words about the B&N 20% saving:

it includes free shipping (USDM) if you select "standard delivery" (i.e., snail mail usually).

you can save a couple of dollars more if you're a card-carrying B&N member.

Quite a good deal, but they don't expect the book will be available to ship until 12/28, according to the onscreen info. Still a good deal, for those like me who are so very patient

Best, J

I hope the book sales work out for you. I'm trying to help.....

Amazon.com is now offering this (hopefully great) book at $49.

I ordered mine on Amazon and sent a 10% off coupon to one of my other e-mail accounts. At least one person should be able to use this to get 10% off the book, maybe many people can use it, I'm not sure:


Amazon 10% off Adrian's book

PCA-GR is also doing this if anyone is interested who lives in Germany.
Ciao,

PS: Karl, Alois RUF and the rest of the PCA-GR membership who had the opportunity to look over the book "office copy" seemed to be very happy with the content. The PCA-GR President won a copy in the raffle and he was thrilled. If I could post a picture I would but there seems to be a problem with the system recognising me as a rennlist member. Maybe the system knows me tooooo well.
