Iain, basic arithmetic was never a strong point of mine, but 200 sales to non-ARG members would be good or put it another way, if every ARG member bought a copy we would also break even.
You can tell a builder from an archaeologist by the size of his trowel. Mine is a small one!

Books have been delivered but no packages to send them out or shop on the forum yet. One sold to an archive visitor

With the number of Facebook groups for Disused Airfields, there should be a ready market for the book.

Sadly most of the groups on facebook are very badly moderated and full of clueless idiots who believe what is on facebook as fact and do nothing but quote wikipedia to make them look 'good'

Oh, good, I thought it was only me that thought that.  Fortunately a lot of the local history Facebook groups seem to be occupied by people who went to school and appear to be over fifty.

what i was trying to say is that the book should find its audience and hit those sales targets. That there are enough people with an interest in the subject.

If you are attending the AGM at Upper Heyford on Sunday you can purchase one there. 30 books will be attending!
