Really enjoyed the read Thanks TCF.

Most things made me laugh.

I like the time recorder episode, that was one of the most popular ways to damage a machine too, but it was good for us as the frame of the machine was so damaged it meant a new machine.

Received mine from Amazon. Thoroughly enjoyed it - thank you for writing it!

One thing - will the Amazon printer let you put a title on the spine?
It looks lost on my book shelf!

I've not got mine yet, alas, and I was one of the kickstarters. Clue as to who and where is in my username - not moaning but would be nice to have it for the weekend.

Thanks Crack Fox, mine arrived today. I was going to give it to my Dad as a Christmas present but as you wrote my name in the front I'll have to read/keep this one and buy another!

Thanks. I'm not sure why there's no print on the spine. QA issue? smile
A factory QC issue? smashwobble

Oops! I did state "personal message from the author", but I did wonder if some folks might have preferred a copy without. Anyhoo, I hope you enjoy it!
No it's fine don't worry!

Got my copy today (Amazon)......read over a glass of wine or two this evening. I loved the Quentin Wilson reference, and not in the least bi surprised.

Top effort, a most enjoyable read.

They've all been posted, unless I don't have your address and your email bounced. Please drop me an email (link in my profile) and I'll look into it pronto. Ta.
Hopefully it will land today. If not I will PM you. For info my user name here is the first part of my first name, surname and postcode if that gives a clue :-)

How hard would it be, Rich, to set up a Kindle edition? (i.e. the PDF). I have mine, but looks like there are few folk who are after it.

The book has just arrived via amazon. I've only read to the end of the introduction so far, and even that made me chuckle.
Roll on tonight for my appointment with a comfy sofa, a good book and a glass of Lagavulin. I can't wait! biggrin

I'm still enjoying the book very much, Rich.

Not getting through it as quick as some seem to have done - wish I had the time!

Anyway, as far as funniest bits goes, it has to be the 'brushing the blonde hair from your suit trousers', episode.

Might have to order another copy for my dad. Kind of wish I'd ordered two from the kick-starter now!
