THE Inevitable question... When will series 800 be available

[John A.]

The DVDs are through stage 2 of 4. They now need to be reviewed for errors and then they will correct anything and start to manufacture. My guess is you will be ordering before the end of Sept.

I will be waiting....

We wouldn't expect anything different from you, Anna.

Personally, it would be brilliant to be able to order the 800 series dvds in early December and get them just before Christmas. I could then sit down, with my feet up, a large mug of mulled wine and some Lebkuchen within easy reach, and sigh with utter contentment whilst watching all those amazing programmes again.

If that timescale is a little tight, then take your time and get them to me by mid-May as an extra-special treat for my 60th birthday.

And if all fails, I'll retire in July 2014 and could fly over in person later in 2014 and pick up a set myself.

John, just let me know which option appeals to you.

Oh Lorchen, that is so funny
but i like your schedule - i'm happily waiting...

Lorchen,

You are so funny! I love the way that you tease Anna. I look forward to your banter with each series. :lol:

I am also looking forward to the release of this DVD set. In addition to the Star member discount, I hope that there will be discounts for additional copies. This looks like a great gift for Christmas. (Paula, Melony - want a copy under the tree?)

Lorchen - I will raise my mug to you in May to celebrate your birthday; although my mug will probably contain Estes Park Stinger Wild Honey-Wheat Ale! I am a May baby too.

[Diane F.]

Gee I just looked and 800 is not available for purchase yet.... BUMMER...

I wonder if they ever considered pre sales ????

[Pam D.]

The post from Capt'n John on page one said he HOPED we would be able to order by th END of September. My calendar says it's 19th today. I think the US calendar has the same dates as ours in UK.

[John A.]

Series 8 is now in and available at the Shoppe. We have expected it for weeks but didn't want to say anything until we had it in hand. Thank you for your patience. Whoo Hoo!

[Hannelore N.]

John, you rock! That's one Christmas present all sorted. Thanks to everybody who is working so hard to get these dvds to us.

And (before Anna asks), John, just one more thing: When will Series 9 be in the Shoppe??? Only joking! Just aim with that one for when I retire in July 2014.
