Glad you received it without a hitch. I've sold two copies to the UK in the past month and each time it scares the crap out of me because of the whole customs thing and because without fail, everytime a person from the UK has mailed ME something it's taken a few months or never shown up.

I'm in the middle of High Fidelity, I liked the movie a lot but this is the first time I have gotten around to reading the book. It puts a different spin on the story since it is based in London.

Also reading a book of poems and short stories by Henry Rollins called "Body Bag", some of it blows my mind with the gritty heart of society style he writes and then some sounds like an angsty 14 year old which completley ruins it...

Thats the Royal Mail for you, but I was pleasantly surprised at the speed of the books arrival.

As was I both times I sent books to the UK. I've sent things to people in the states that have taken like ten days.

*giggles*

I honestly just started, as in picked it up for the first time the other night - So I'm just at his autobiographical beginnings.

I'm cutting into this reading with the latest volume of The Walking Dead. Not quite as satisfying as If Chins Could Kill, though.
