Hi Dean Well Grant, All I can say is I wasn't disappointed with mine! I'll leave you to enjoy it to the full yourself I was actually referring to the DVD i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gif - I've already had the standard edition for just over a week now and I absolutely love it to bits! Best wishes Grant

A couple of interesting lyric extracts: To Mother Shattered pieces on the ground Fallen without any sound Yet still you hear them fall The shattered mirror ball.And Many Times Always Broken glass pieces fall from the skyDo you think Hayley has had a Katherine Jenkins moment, as when her voice smashed a crystal chandelier. Has Hayley managed to do something similar I wonder? Martin

Tomorrow. Tomorrow has to be the day. I can't suffer one more day of disappointment! I have been waiting too long! I want my CDs. I'm going to bed, and when I get up, HSJS2 better be in the mail catcher! (Luna, our dog, eats it if it lands on the floor - I hope I get to it before she does).

My deluxe edition arrived yesterday. It only took five days with normal air mail. Great service again from CDJapan!
Listened to it a couple of times so far. I'll be back with comments once I've had a few more listens.

Customs charges This appears on the increase. Did anyone get 'caught' that had the 'gift' box ticked, and also used ordinary air mail Graham

Hello everyone I got in this afternoon to find a similar card from the postman although I saved 29p as my customs charge is only £11.36 I collected my Delux Edition HSJS2 from the Post Office this evening and, although the 'charge' sticker is addressed from HM revenue and Customs, Mount Pleasant Postal Depot, the charge is made up of £8.00 Royal Mail International handling Fee and £3.36 VAT. I am not impressed! Best wishes Grant

My package was stamped 'cleared' at Royal Mail Mount Pleasant. The box was also ticked for 'Personal Use'. I don't know if that was the reason it was cleared though.

Hello IHF My package was stamped 'cleared' at Royal Mail Mount Pleasant. The box was also ticked for 'Personal Use'. I don't know if that was the reason it was cleared though. I don't think so - mine was also ticked for 'Personal Use'. Seems it's just a random thing - some you win, some you loose! Best wishes Grant

Wow, I guess I'm glad I don't live in England! It's been nearly 3 weeks since I got mine!

I have a feeling that my birthday is cursed this year (I could bore you with how and why, but the root cause is my grandmother having a stroke and the doctor telling us that she won't last two weeks ) and if one thing is going to go right, no matter how trivial, please let it be the eventual arrival of this album tomorrow morning! Actually, I think I should go to the soap box thread to moan just about how just about everything that could go wrong for my birthday, is actually going wrong. I'm astounded I have suffered so much bad luck. So yeah, original point being, if it arrives tomorrow, it may lighten up my day, if only a little bit.
