Downloading Nige's book
« on: May 01, 2009, 03:14:23 PM »
Anyone here downloaded a copy?

I tried - I get "download complete" after a few seconds - I am on dial-up so I know that is not right. Last night I let it do its thing for about 40 minutes but still no book.

Did anyone try this? Did you get some kind of bar or counter showing the download (I did not).

What am I doing wrong?

People will come from strange lands to hear me speak my words of wisdom. They will ask me the secret of life and I will tell them. Then maybe I'll finish off with a song. The Nomad

Erm... confused of the United Kingdom writes "Was Diane wrong in buying the book, or did Roger just state he was buying the book"

Mystic Molly adds "A popular forum member will buy the book."

I think Roger is implying that Diane's problem was buying the book in the first place!

Thank you, Vulch. I was just having an affectionate dig at Mr. Sutherland's opus.

I think that may still be an arrestable offence in some countries, Roger.
I apologise, in advance.

I never felt a thing.

Did you get that matter resolved, Diane? It may take a while do download with dial-up. I'll bring you a copy over when I'm next in Canada.

You should be able to get the hard copy from Amazon now, Diane. How does THAT make you feel?  ;D

You get a free peek here too.
