Dear flute friends,

Please excuse me for posting once again about my dictionary, but something has
happened that is too good not to mention. A few people in Europe (e.g., David
Oliver – see below) have written to me to let me know that they are getting my
book for an unbelievably low price from amazon.co.uk (e.g., 3.75 pounds WITH
shipping)!!!! I really thought this too good to be true, so avoided posting
about it until my friends received their books and credit card statements.

Best wishes,
Susan Maclagan

Dear Susan,

I have ordered your dictionary from Amazon.co.uk

The whole order with shipping etc came to £3.75 (6.74 CAD) Surely this cannot
be right???

I thought you may like to know..... I am looking forward to receiving it!!!!

Best wishes,

David
