Sounds like you were sucked-in s'n'c, due to looking forward to the guide coming out?
:)

I want to know if it contains other useful info like;

*Bee grades, for climbs that involve negotiating their hives.

*Dragon words, for placating same, ... should the need arise; or failing that, directions to the new cafe, and an indication of what it has on it's menu!

*Where the regular K26 sales happen!

*Is the faerie population of Natimuk growing or in decline?

*Will a special collectors edition (signed of course, by 'he who wrote the book'!), be available?

:)

How about including a list of places that haven't been bolted?

lets not propose more ideas about what would be good to be included as it might just slow the release date even more.

I heard it with my own ears from the man himself .. "it's at the printers".

Meanwhile, rumour has it that Simey is researching for his next guidebook, "Cliffhanger Altona: select routes".

Why do I get all the shit? Glenn is co-author of this book as well.

And yes the guide is at the printers. ETA will be around the end of July.

But don't get too excited. It is just our old guidebook repackaged with some colour.

My guess is because you frequent this site and are therefore likely to read the sh!t.

Oh, that's dissapointing, I was expecting the 'Best of Ben Cairn' first.

I think gfdonc was suggesting there would be more new routes to research at Cliffhanger than elsewhere ...
