Ordered on the 2nd, it turned up yesterday... usual story no tracking info, a dozen confirmation emails, no reply to messages or emails, no answering the phone but it did at least arrive. Very very minor damage to one corner but at least I can read it.
Mr Lane has gone quiet about the release of his book over the last couple of weeks, I hope we don't have a repeat performance!

Received mine a few days ago and I went straight to the ‘Tunnels' chapter as it's a lake I fished and loved. I wondered if there would be anything we didn't see in the film, but aside from the odd tale regarding the horses (which I experienced myself so it wasn't totally out the blue!) it was basically the film in text. Literally word for word in some of it.
Typical Tel tale but it did feel a bit rushed, but maybe that's because he was writing about something people had already watched.
Other than that all I've read is the intro, which was nicely written.

I know there's a few Tel enthusiasts that like to try and follow the same path of lakes and fish - they might struggle emulating the majority of these now
From a writers perspective, waiting a decade or more, before you publish your long awaited book, would stop the sheep following in his footsteps as all those known big target fish are dead, so no point clogging up those potential waters, club tickets.
Keeping sponsors happy and previous water members as well.

My book arrived thos morning, slightly bashed corners, but bought as a reading book, not to sell, so not particularly fussed, but poor all the same.

Ordered mine on the 1st, not signed even though some who ordered on the 2nd have got signed copies. Corners damaged but I want it to read otherwise I would have been extremely disappointed with how it's turned up.

I'm hoping mine will turn up soon then, I ordered on the 2nd mine still isn't here. I've tried calling calm productions but not answer all the time

If he's posting them himself he might as well sign them at the same time.
