No doubt about it he's some piece of work, what a talent and a smashing bloke to boot (whatever that means :-) Plus the fact he seems to be always surrounded by luscious ladies ! :thumbsup:

Got my copy today and it's an impressive 600 pages thick!

Sydney was kind enough to autograph it for me, as I'm sure he's doing with every copy, and I'm looking forward to playing the CD that came as part of the package.

Great!

Still waiting - seems to have been a mess up with my payment which went via Barclaycard on the link on Sidney's connection to Paypal. Fingers crossed.

Sidney's been on the case, and as good as his word, sorted it out and the book arrived today, along with the T-shirt and CD single with 3 tracks. Thanks Sidney!
