I am REALLY angry about this, I've wanted to read this book for a long time now and I have to raise more than double what I already have! I tried looking on Amazon, found it was £5.99 there too but the P&P is really high so there's no way I'll be getting it any time soon. eBay's even more expensive than Waterstones, so that's out of the question too!



Ahhh Diddums

Wake up and smell the coffee, this is the world of free trade

You will just have to save up a bit longer and stop whining

Some people will be wanting golden elephants next.

Ottakas is history, and good riddence

Viva Waterstones and free enterprise.
