Maybe it was one of the originals resurfaced and was worth a small fortune and you left it there. :shock: :shock:

hehe! I got mine early too then - came this morning! :D

By and large it's not that 'cluttered' - good for those people who don't like Josh's mad style too much. It's certainly not a graphic novel. So far my fave illustration is the one of the most beautiful woman in the world AK (after kids) :twisted:

Just got an email from Amazon it's been despatched. :D I had it in my basket for a day or so while I was looking for something else had a few items in and when Ihad found what I was looking for (new wireless mouse as the one Microsoft replaced it with was no good it was too small being 6000 mobile blue track one ideal for the netbook but it's not ergonomic like I had)

when I went to place the order it stated two of the items had went up in price by a few pound each so I cancelled it all, went back next day and the price was back down to what it was originally. :D

Flicked through it in a shop on Friday - not really my cup of tea. I like his covers for the visual impact but I don't think they can sustain a whole book.
