FIFA WM
OK, for me Croatia was the favorite... but...
The first time since Peter Shilton the 3Lions have a good goalkeeper
AND a good team, no fear to lose again against Germany in penalty shootout :-)
and then they have not used this unique opportunity against a experienced Croatia team.

Thanks Frank.
Yes, we have a good goalkeeper. The team have exceeding all expectations, because they are a very young team. At least they won our first ever World Cup penalty shootout!!

Excellente!

Another nice one! I was wondering (I don't remember if we discussed this before) - is there a particular 'type' of proof you like most? My favourite proofs were always the plain, bound ones because they really look like a separate, early state of the book, whereas the ones that have cover art usually look more like a paperback version of the trade edition. Do you have a preference?

(of course, the answer is probably that I'm just weird and that you are a true, non-discriminating proof collector :smile:)

Nice one, Jon.

Very nice. I think that one goes right next to INSOMNIA.

Very nice.

Thanks Michaël. I generally prefer the older '70s and 80's proofs, especially the UK proofs. I also find the manuscript proofs fascinating, especially if they have text that has been editing out / or substantially rewritten or reordered for the final book; for example IT, the BOMC Misery and Tommyknockers submission manuscripts. My favourites tend to be the scarcer proofs because they were more challenging to find, but they can be from any era; for example the scarce UK Bag of Bones proofs or Hearts in Altantis Light blue proof. They are nothing special to look at, but the satisfaction is in the hunt to find them.
