Tracking

The mechanisms for tracking my newly printed book tell me that it left Eindhoven in The Netherlands on 30th September and arrived in Barking in the UK later the same day. From there it travelled to Tamworth and then on to Leeds. It is now on a vehicle somewhere between here and there and should be with me by the end of today. The journey has begun. Keep watching for news of its first release into the public domain.
