Farewell in Australia DELAY

Sleepy · Post by **Sleepy** » Fri Dec 02, 2005 3:45 am

thanks daniel - looks good

I have got a few things in my wishlist at christianbook.com; Compilation CD's that Petra have one song on, and pre-order of the DVD, which I will order soon
...wait until mid 2006... I don't think so...

BTW, ATWR has continued playing Petra for now, not sure how long it will continue.. and also plan on playing at the end of December, beginning of January 06 (3 days total)
I sent in a few pics of the AGMF, a couple are on the shout out page

yup, I have received my Farewell CD today !!! YAY!! It was sent priority post on the 27th (from the ATWR contest) so it made good time - 9 days.. impressive. The one I ordered before I found out about the competition was sent on the 23rd by standard international - not sure when it will get here?

I had mine shipped on 22nd Nov and paid extra for PRIORITY POST too but still not here

(Maybe its coz im in Tasmania)

... good opportunity for a joke there, but I'll restrain myself... poor little Tasman-ites get a hard time as it is

As a fellow Pethead, I sympathise and hope you receive the CD soon

ahhh, then you know that everything is slower in Tazzy...
Nevermind, at least you have the internet

.. everyone has their weak-point, as for me, I get paid out on for being "from the country" and wouldn't have it any other way

you can take the girl out the the country, but (well you know)...
Actually my brother in law and father in law are on holiday in Tazzy until next Friday... half their luck
The CD is worth the wait - I was wrapped that Grave Robber is on there and kicks butt... its on of my two favorites, the other is All the Kings Horses...

I belong to some mail art groups and I have found that with rare exception, mail takes an inordinate time (and is far more subject to disappearing) when Australia and NZ post are involved. Especially the melbourne 'side' of Austalia (Victoria anyway).
I think it is that your customs regulations are very strict and they often destroy incoming mail with natural product-though that shouldn't be a problem in this case.
However, it may be languishing in the bowels of a customs agency-Canada Customs loves to do that too-then slap a big charge on it for their time...

I have never had a problem getting stuff from US to here from ebay etc.

I think it is amazing that something can be sent from the other side of the world and get here at all.

Ive never had a problem either til now

and the most important CD FAREWELL is now lost forever

oh well

by the way the other Aussies on here what was ur turnaround time from ordering, shiping and arrival in your letter box ???

Mine was Despatch CDUniverse Tues 22/11/05

You guys have been pretty lucky! I don't know anyonw from there who hasn't had at least some trouble with the mail system.
It may be gone forever, though not necessarily. I have had international mail take 2 months to reach it's destination sometimes-and that was without the christmas rush involved.

FINALLY FAREWELL

yippee

my wife just sms me and said i got a package in the mail and she's bringin it with her when she picks me up in about 10min.
I guess we're gonna be taking the long long way home, while we listen to FAREWELL for the first time.

For the record: Shipped - Mon 22 Nov
Arrived - Tue 13 Dec

but who cares anyway now, coz its ROCK!!! time.... yeah!
