"Dear Customer

Thank you for contacting Amazon.co.uk.

Please accept our sincere apologies that we have currently been unable to obtain any further information regarding your order #blah.

However, please rest assured that our ordering department are still looking into your order and we will dispatch it to you without further delay as soon as we receive a copy from the supplier."

I should bloody well hope you will, but when might that be, eh? Since I ordered it at the beginning of October, expecting a 10-15 day wait, and you have it down as being delivered 9-15th November which now seems extremely unlikely? And since I am in fact 40,000 words through the work of fiction based upon it?

Bah. Cannot cope. Off to Mordor Waterstones Piccadilly, Europe's largest bookshop (or was a few years back).
