I'm under the impression it's considered a big cult thing in Scotland. Would explain it to an extent as a culutre/media interest piece - and you know what they're like up there...

Thanks for that info.

Yeahh !

Amazon have posted my copy of The Gaffer Series 1 !

Mine too. Quite annoyed they didn't send it on Saturday, as they did when I had a pre-order a couple of weeks ago.

Booo !

The posties are on strike !

Mm. I've had very little post in the last week. Bloody commie bastards!

Wooo! It arrived!

I think I've had a box set go missing in the post. Nearly had a 2nd the other day, when the postman delivered to me next door's post, and I could see a parcel for me on top of his bike. I asked him if it was for me, and he had to check what house he was at! If I hadn't asked, where would that parcel have ended up?

The guys around here at the moment are pretty good, but some really do redefine incompetent. And then there's the ones who don't seem able to speak English...

Ah! I think the one I'm referring to is from Portugal! Must be the kind of highly-skilled foreign worker that Gordon Brown refers to.

Ha!

Yeah ! Me too.

Wonderful posties !

The notes on the back cover say 'The recession is biting and The Gaffer finds himself under siege . . . '

Nothing new under the sun is there ?

Nope!

I've updated our database with a wealth of new releases today, including a lot of box sets. Particularly liking netwurk's 'the cumpleet series' of Just William. Interestingly there's a few uncomplete box sets, such as S1-7 (of 21) of Spitting Image.

Quite a lot of stand up titles will be added during the week.
