    I got mine via Dominican Republic too. I think you'll find it was the original dispatch. Somehow they ended up being sent there instead of Australia and they're trickling through now.

    It was the original issue. I kept the faith that it would arrive eventually, and had not requested a replacement.

    Well #186 finally arrived in the post today. It was the replacement issue.

    It took four months but Taunton eventually got it here.

    I guess this one must have come surface post?

    Anyway, I'm all up to date now.

    Wongo, you get yours yet?

    I got #186 in the post yesterday 'arvo

    Bloody Taunton Press. Thanks to them I now have three copies each of #185 and #186. Sheesh! Is there no end to their incompetence?

    I thought about giving them to the first two people to PM me their address but then I would have to organise postage etc and if a big company like Taunton can't get that right, what hope do I have? I might give them to my local doctor and dentist so I've got something interesting to read in the waiting rooms.

    I got the original issue late, via the Dominican Republic. Today the second copy arrived so I really can't complain. I look at it this way, they made a mistake and they fixed it. Judging by the size of the error they did what they could. Not fantastic service, but they did address the problem to my satisfaction.

    What Groggy said. They are usually pretty good. They had a new contractor who upstuffed, they fixed it as well as they could, and they appear to be auditing their distribution performace. Hard to ask for more.
