waiting for mine to make its journey across the waves .... :sweating:

 

[~JO~]

I think its great Such an interesting read, my Archie is on page 225 (I think), its great because on the next pages are his father, grandfather and gt. grandfather!

I can't imagine how much effort it takes to product it!

Got my copy today as well. We put in a B&W add, but will probably do a coloured one next time, because the coloured ones do look a lot better. :thumbsup:

Hmmmmmmmmmm .......... well I am learning by my mistakes!! Last time I sent my photo in on disk and the stupid printers tried to enlarge it by pulling it out on the side instead of a corner so Rupert looks like a Dachshund!!!

This year I sent a 'hard copy' photo but the blurb on disk and they printed the picture verbatim the size that I had just drawn a square to indicate where on the page I wanted it, so it is almost miniscule!!! When the advert (especially for colour) is so expensive I feel a bit peeved really!!

I shall think very carefully for the next edition and send it EXACTLY as I want it .......... I wonder what they will make of that!

As a matter of interest. If you make up a copy at exactly the same size as the book with a square marked out for the picture you should be all right.

Well I am dead chuffed with mine :wub: Its just how I wanted it to be ( page 276 ) , I cant believe more people didnt go colour , it looks SOOOOOOOO much better , o and its not like its every year is it :lol: :thumbsup:

I dont know wether Lucinda or Molly come on here to look , but i think congratulations are in order for them . Last year I sent a thankyou card , o I cant begin to imagine all the hours that must go into making it , can you ? :cheers: :- "

 

[Zephyr]

Yes full marks to them for all their hard work, I think the biennial is always terrific and an invaluable reference book, but in colour it is wonderful! :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Zephyr's picture was also quite small(p231), but that was completely my own fault as my verbal diarrhoea made it impossible for them to make the picture any larger :b :- "

Next time, less blurb, more photo!!
