When is your book being published? By jon December 2nd, 2009 at 5:05 pm

Ok, i know this is really slack, to lodge a post on the website months and months after everyone thinks the site is inactive……  butit is very exciting this week because Jack and I have just finished editing the manuscript of the book and it is now with the designers….. and i have been getting a steady stream of calls from people asking if our book will be out for this Christmas… and it won’t i am sorry to say.

so the designers will make it look wonderful and then it goes off in early 2010 to get printed, then a few months for that and shipping and then distribution to warehouses and hey…. presto… it goes to the shops!

the title is ‘From Here To There’ and it is a bit like a scrap book with gazillions of photos and memorabilia and stuff that tells the stories as well as our words….

so thanx for hanging in there and keep us in mind for Easter…. or Fathers Day… or next Christmas !!!!

best wishes

jon

    When your book is published and ready for sale please broadcast loud and clear , Jon.
    And fantastic radio this last week. Such a relief not to hear (and turn off) talk back on such topics as ’songs that make you cry’.
    Back to news, insight, humour. Thank you. Kathryn

    great to hear you back on the radio.
    glad to hear the book is on its way.
    still wondering why you called the 4×4 ping maybe I missed something, and sorry you had to part with it.
    Have a happy healthy and prosperous NY

    My wife and I are starting to plan a trip to follow your footsteps. Was wondering if some voice contact was possible to get an overview on the planing. My brother inlaw drove from London to Hong Kong a couple of years ago, so we have some idea of whats required. Hope you have some time to help us

    Cheers

    Hi guys, I am inspired by your adventures. A friend and I are planning a similar trip for 2012, but we are having trouble arranging transport from Darwin to Indonesia. How did you go about organising a ride on a container ship?

    Good Luck with the book, I’ll be buying a copy!

    Mikko.

    Hi Guys

    Really looking forward to the book.

    This may sound ridiculous but already starting to plan a Motorbike ride from Brisbane to Colchester (Where my sons were born) in 14 years time

    I will be sixty and my two wonderful boys will be 27 and 21, it’s good to dream and hopefully they will still want to come along then

    Well done

    Blinkers
