There's going to be delays. I got last week's NME on Tuesday. Then this week's NME didn't show up on Wednesday! Don't worry about it, everything is just going extremely slow.

Yeah I should have mentioned the money came out my account before that too. But I'm sure it's just postal delays holding it up.

Still no bundle so i've emailed them. I'm not too worried yet as it's only been a week and with the weather and time of year you expect some delays, but if overseas people get theirs before me then I'll be a little worried that's it's gone missing.

I ordered my vinyl from HMV and it was posted 8 days ago, still don't have it. Hoping it's just postal delays but I will give them a ring next week if it's still not here. I don't think any post is actually arriving on time.

Did you have a good look in the cardboard envelope the vinyl came in? It's a small insert copy of the cover that should be signed.

Sorry to hear you didn't get your goodies, but what in the Scritti Polliti are 'Boo urns'?! I just laughed out loud when I read that.

"Grrrrrrrrrr....aaaaaaaaaaaaaargh...boo urns!!"

It's a silly phrase I say when things go wrong. Pretty much 'boo' with 'urns' put on the end.

I love it and am going to be sure to work it into my own vocabulary now. "Dr, what do you mean I've only got hours to live?! BOO URNS!!!"

Boo urns is from the Simpsons isn't it? Something like Smithers tells Mr Burns that people are saying that when they're actually booing him.

Indeed it is! 'Boo Urns'

I may have gotten it from there subconsciously actually.

You folks are an education. I like it

I love how you just whipped up some instant 'boo urns' video evidence too.

I wonder if anyone out there has got a boo urns tattoo? You know it makes sense...
