Dear Sue, and others, I have ordered my copy from Amazon in US$ and it came to $38.90 plus cheapest postage (4-5 weeks) $18 so with current exchange rates of 7.1 ? as opposed to 4.1 ? that should be a better deal. It hasn't hit my bank statement yet so can't give an exact value in Aussie$s. I should get it in about 2 more weeks. I'm not surprised or disappointed to hear that there is more needle lace than bobbin lace. When I visited the V and A last year the needle lace I saw was stunning!

This is of special interest to those of you at this end of the world! (Oz, NZ) I ordered the book through the V and A site and had no problems, when I put in the option to have it sent to this part of the world the postage came up as 25 British pounds and like a fool I clicked to send the order! The book itself is 30 pounds and the cost of postage didn't penetrate through to my one brain cell until after I had sent the order off. - To unsubscribe send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] containing the line: unsubscribe lace [EMAIL PROTECTED] For help, write to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
