somebody told me that it probably arrives on the 27th, in Europe. that they`ll send it on the 26th, so you`ll have in on the 27th in your letterbox  ;D

With the speed of the UK postal service we might be lucky if we get it by the 27th of next month  ;D

I've never heard of a package coming in one day before though  :doh:

I say they should send it on the 25th to people in Spain, considering how lazy the courier service is (the Spanish couriers, not Dutch  ;D) . We still wouldn't get it until the 27th  :doh:

TBH, I highly recommend watching this particular Top Gear Challenge.
Richard and James race against a letter delivered by the Royal Mail from the Isles of Scilly (England) to Birsay on Mainland, Orkney (Scotland) in the new Porsche Panamera.

It's brilliant, because it follows the whole journey of a single letter which could be your copy of SSE!
So, A Porche Vs Royal Mail  :evil:

Part 1: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L2wYdBL57s4
Part 2: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4WA_I4rNfsk

Watch it  :evil:

EDIT: Could it be possible a next day delivery?!

Don't bet on it Amazon's delivery estimates are usually on the generous side I think you'll see it sooner!

You guys are getting it via post ... I'm getting the download version ... and it will be stored on all three of my 1TB external hard drives (1 is my regular user ... 1 is my back up ... and 1 is a 2nd back up)

May seen a bit over kill but I have a 1TB hard drive that kicked the bucket for no reason and don't have the cash to pay for its data to be removed... so I have my regular user, used all the time, then my back up is updated once a week (wednesday) and the 2nd back up is backed up at the beginning and end of the month ... assuming I remember.

This post makes no sense, so I substitute this one in it's stead.

It's the quiet before the storm. Soon we can expect a flurry of posting. ;D

In that sense, I can't wait. =D I only opted for the post because if I downloaded, it would take three weeks with my internet. No joke.

Once i preordered GTA San Andreas at Amazon and the delivery was sheduled on Friday - i received it on Monday the same week ;) (thx DHL Express)

Anyways, also DHL International Express managed to fail with a delivery - it took 2 weeks to send important ship certificates from Germany to Sweden  :doh:

Only 2 times sleeping left :D

Trouble is that the day before is a Bank Holiday Monday, the day before that is Sunday...

no post on any of those days...  :-\

But...

Just the rest of Today and Tomorrow left...

And Tommorrow is...
