Maybe Roger will arrange for the senior users of this forum to get a complimentary copy, but I assumed that I had to pay hard earned cash for mine.

Senior users? I don't even take drugs. Send me your copy and I'll scan it. :)

Why bother.  The other site will probably do it anyway.

Amazon said that mine is due by March 13.

The delightful tome duly arrived today. Have read it already, sniggered at the Vultures and Dennis in his Gorilla outfit.

When's the next one published?

I just ordered mine, it should be here between March 16th and sometime in April.

How old are the included strips, Roger? Do they pick up from around the time the last book was published, are they all pretty recent, or are they a randomly/carefully selected set of strips from throughout this time period?

Hang on. Are you saying this is a book of repeats?

I think they're around 8 to 10 years old, Jack---none of them have appeared in book form before. I used to get free books from the publishers but this new set-up doesn't allow for that. I have returned all of Mince's begging letters.

STILL waiting for mine >:(.  I see the Star has put a line under Beau today to say the new book is out (trouble is they didn't say Amazon.com -- it's not available on .co.uk).

Rob, I contacted The Star to put the tagline on and only found out today that a search on Amazon reveals nothing. I'll try to sort it out.

Who found out for you?

I did! I've been in touch with the Star again and the new tagline will correctly identify amazon.com.

Am I the only one on this site (other than Roger, of course) that has seen this book?

My book was waiting for me when I got home this evening. Of course I read it immediately. Needless to say I was highly entertained. Hooray for a new Beau Peep book, I look forward to the next one :)


At the risk of revealing that I don't purposely buy the Daily Star if I can help it, I must enquire as to what on Earth happened to Mad Pierre? He was conspicuous by his absence (even having been replaced by the reporter on the splash page). Did he get killed off some time ago? Were his acts of needless violence deemed poor taste in this politically-correct world, resulting in his banishment from the newspaper?
