As newcomer to the forum I contribute hesitatingly (!) (In fact Bubba's comment in an other section in this forum prompted me to get involved!) but I've been waiting for this guide for sooooooooooooooo long I'm getting butterflies just thinking about! :D  Good work Mr. Panton!

Welcome to the forum m8!

Personally, I think that if he's not careful, Pantontino is gonna get lynched or trampled by a stampede of wide-eyed boulderers on release day, such is the desire for people to get their hands on a copy.

 :idea:  I might buy 200 and sell them on ebay for double price  :idea:   :wink:

So long as no one suggests that we camp outside teh shop the night before delivery then everything will be OK.

Damn.. Did I just suggest that

Oh well, Saw a draft / development copy of the guide when I was in V12 last week, and it looked ace.

can't wait for it to come out... got people back home nagging me to pickup copies as I live closer than they do.

Well, see you all in north wales when the guides out.

Sorry for the delay - I have been struggling with problems over which I have very little control. It's a long story and I won't bore you with the details, but I'm hoping to finally get it to the printers next week.

There's a taster of the Wavelength area in the latest Climber - check out the size of Neil Dyer's back. The man is a beast!

Finished today at last - off to the printers tomorrow!

I feel a colossal weight beginning to lift from my shoulders - mind you I'm not out of the woods yet, I'm sure they'll knock me back with some hideous techy problem that I have failed to spot.

I think you've just made a lot of boulderers very happy  :D

About how long does it take from press to shop, assuming no major problems?

Between 2 and 4 weeks depending on how lucky I am in the queuing system (having lost my original place before X-mas), both at the printers and the binders.

I guess I'll find out soon enough.

Pre-Order / Reservations for those of us who have been showing an interest for ages, and keep getting upset at it being longer and longer?
