The pleasure/agony of anticipation

[Man of Tanith]

I was recommended a book by Southey of these here parts
After a few days of internal debate i crumbled and bought a copy through amazon.
The delivery estimate date was between 14th may and the 6th of june
it has not yet arrived but i am starting to notice the post man has developed a slight nervous twitch as he walks through my front gate....almost like he is expecting me to wrench the door open and demand my post (i've only done it a couple of times.....this past week)

i know it's still in its estimated dates but i'm really getting narky because it isn't here yet
just wanted to share my impatience with you all

If its any help I ordered something from Amazon recently and it arrived 4 days later via RM 1st class post...

I find that looking at the following helps me with focus in my life...

that's exactly how it is for me Rob
absolutely doing my pickle in, i also suspect it will arrive when i am sleeping off a night shift so i will be extra cranky with the postie despite him finally delivering it

 

[Man of Tanith]

so brought it with me tonight to read through
