Looks great. I can hardly wait to get my hands on it. The Journal is always fantastic but if this one is extra special then it will truly be something to behold. :D

Re: Journal 50/All Journals in one volume?

Post by pete9012S »

It would be a dream come true for me to have all the journals so far 1-50 in one bumper volume / book to dip into and reference at any time.

Costly,time consuming and laborious? Yes,no doubt.But I,like many others would be happy to pay in advance for my copy to keep operational costs down.I'm sure many others would to.
Is this another pipe dream Uncle Tony,or may it ever happen one day?

Here's Hoping. :D
