So I pre-ordered HBP on AmazonUK, and according to the website, the estimated delivery date is 15/16 July 2005. I realise of course that getting the book on the 15th is a crack dream, but I seem to recall Amazon being really good about delivering on the day itself. Am I remembering this right? Also, is next-day delivery done by courier or by post? I'm asking because the 16th is a Friday and I'm having it sent to my work address, which of course means that if it's not delivered on the 16th, I'm not getting it until the following Monday.

It was quite on time but law and behold the postman (yes, it was brought by the postman) just left it on the little balcony of my toilet window. Outside of the rain but available for anyone who wished to grab it.
(Luckely for me, no such person lives on my dead end street with 8 houses in it)
Either way I think you're going to get yours before I get mine.

E will be tortured: my mother's pre-ordered it from Amazon, but it'll be sent to her address in Gourock...

Don't know when the book is supposed to get from Gourock to here, but I'm ordering two copies (one for me, one for my youngest brother), so E's welcome to borrow my second copy until you guys get yours.

Amusingly, the book will probably ship from Amazon's warehouse in Gourock anyway. ;o)
E went 'gleeeee!' when I relayed that to her. :o)

Heee! I'll probably finish reading my copy by the end of my work day, if it's delivered early and not too many people call, so I'll be annoyingly squee-ish and bursting to spoil someone, but I promise I'll restrain myself. :D

*grins* I don't really care about spoilers - I'm not planning to read it. ;o)

The Amazon warehouse in Gourock probably already has stockpiles of the books ready to go out. If you get lucky, it could easily arrive on the 15th. :o)

I'm a bit worried about it, she said she'd show up dressed as dobby. I asked if she would be wearing a little bit more than just a pillow cover and all she did was throwing me an odd look in return.
So please take pictures of all 24 years old looking blonde dobby's while you're there, please ?
