The new look website (coming soon) will make it even easier with a "clickable" Amazon logo.

The book is also available from your friendly membership secretary when renewing your 2010 membership, still 900+ to renew - you know who you are.

I'm relieved to say that I did not get a free kiss from JS with my copy!
i believe that there is now a free postage option with all Amazon purchases. Don't forget to go through the LDWA website when buying anything from Amazon, which gives the LDWA some commission. I find the easiest way is to go via "Buy a map."

Good John. Glad to be of some help- and damn- you got it cheaper! Still- I got a signed copy AND a real kiss from JS HIMSELF (tongue in cheek)- that must be worth a lot! But a great reference book.

Eileen - your post stimulated me to get a copy (from Amazon, £6 pound odd off, free postage if you're a Prime subscriber) and the quality of the publishing is really fine. A really good summary handbook of trails and the more important long distance walks around the UK. Top class and a must-have bedside book, I read it well into the night, last night

I have just bought a copy. It must be good 'cos I took it to bed with me! And I didn't even fall asleep. Great reference book. And at a discount price for LDWA members. Well, John Sparshatt didn't give me any anyway more discount other than that offer anyway! I tried. I think this book might be well and truly thumbed in the years to come. It even had St.Oswald's Way in it. One i want to do combined with St. Cuthbert's Way.

And I got a signed copy from John himself thank you John.
After the West Yorks Christmas Walk thank you very much to Patricia.
And geordie Jo won the X factor- yippee!! Sorry for dumming down- but fun nonetheless.

AND if anyone free New Years Eve- look out for the Buck Inn at Malham- great atmosphere. Especially since Patricia and I will be there! Not a long walk next day though...
