I got my book and audiobook in the mail today. My weekend is now planned. ;D
Well, at least I will read the book. Just flipping through it, I was laughing. Some of the illustrations and captions are really funny.

Was kind of planning of ordering this for my b-day but wouldn't it be kind of weird to want a "man book" for birthday?  Then again, since nobody ever buys me anything anyway, I can buy myself anything I want - right? But, my b-day is in December.. can't possibly wait that long  |

I was going to wait. I'm not even sure why. But the suspense got to me, and I ordered book and audio book yesterday! Am bouncing in seat with anticipation! ;D ;D
I don't know how you can hold out until December!

Oh, now I'm reallllly coveting the audio book, but I'm afraid it is just going to have to wait! My birthday and Christmas are 3 days apart, so I just have to be a good girl until then. |

Obviously, I had sand in my eyes the last time I checked the audio book since I didn't see the words "read by the author" right on the cover. Oops. ;D So, now I've decided that I want the book, and the audio book.  Oh no. Mr Hops tolerates a lot, but I think I might be getting a bit too obsessive. Would it help if I waited a few more weeks? What do you think? |

*bounces in* I have the book at last! ;D  There was a bit of cash to spare after my bills were paid, so I treated myself to it as a belated birthday present. Yay!!  *bounces out again* |

Argh, I want the audiobook but it hasn't been put up on iTunes yet. Does anyone have a clue when it might be put on there?  |

You're very welcome.  I just typed 'James May' into the iTunes search engine, and it led to a list of his audio books. I didn't know how else to find it - I'm not very good at computer stuff! |

Thanks.
The artwork for that version is awful.

I wish they gave you the option to make the cover bigger on that version. Would like to see the photo of James a bit clearer.

Actually, I rather like that book cover. It looks very smart and eye-catching. |

I thought he looked smart until I saved it to my pc,It does not look very good blow up. Would like to see him in the suit without the phtoshop baby.  |

At first glance I actually thought it was alright... and then I noticed the baby o.O It doesn't exactly look normal in regards to the entire picture, does it?

After looking at the big version, it's even worse than I first thought. I didn't even see the baby in a sling LMAO. I'm slightly worried about what he is going to do with the baby and the spanner.

Sorry for the double post, but I just have to exclaim my glee: who has two thumbs and forgot she had an iTunes gift card from last Christmas she hadn't redeemed? MEEE. I now have the audiobook! It is REALLY GREAT. *glees all over the place*
