Johhny, its doug, the one who has organised the group buy. He has about 85 orders with the odd new order trickling in, so he just decided to round it up to 100.
Let me know if yuo want his details so you can place an order with him.

Dear Riccardo,
I know what Doug is doing we have been in contact for some time. He and Bentley have been keeping me up to speed with progress which as you point out is very good.
This seems not to have been done in the USA. The Germans are getting their own group together now as well as is another group in the UK who want to do it via their own club.
Ciao,
Adrian

Johnny,
It's Doug Cambpell who normally lurks around the Smartgroups board.
I know he has ordered extra copies so you should not have a problem in getting one!
PM me if you need his email address!

Adrian, I would be most appreciative if you would furnish me an address to which I could send my copy of this book for the author's autograph. I hear that you have some influence with the author.

Dear Syd,
However at this time I would not recommend you send it simply because of the shipping cost. The book weighs a lot, nearly 4 lbs I believe. What I recommend you do is contact Bentley and ask for the book signing schedule. I am sure we can arrange something and if you cannot attend we shall arrange something else. I have to be honest and say I cannot afford to ship the books back and the return cost is going to be at least $US60:00.
I have some influence with the author but not with the shipping company.
However if you or anyone else wishes to take the financial hit, my address is
Adrian Streather
Guetli 1269
CH-9428
Walzenhausen AR
Switzerland.
Make sure the package is marked personal and for return to owner otherwise I have to pay taxes on each book value.
Ciao,

I have just been informed that my book is back from the printer. Bentley seem to be very happy with it. I have not seen it yet. A copy is coming FEDEX. The main reason for the post is to let everyone know that the books are being shipped to the wharehouse ready for distribution next week. I hope the purchasers of the book are as happy as Bentley are.
