Probably delivered by one of the 30,000 temporary staff that Royal Mail are reported to have taken on to limit the effects of the Industrial action. I am happy for you that your Strontium Dog RPG has arrived safely. I am sad for the thousands of postal workers who will eventually lose their jobs. 
There are a few assholes among them who get posties a bad name, but for the most part they are hard working individuals, delivering your post through all kinds of weather.
Gets down off soap box............

I kind of agree with your sentiments, but, mine was delivered by my regular postie!

As far as I know there is not an all out, stay out strike as yet. Its possible that they were not on industrial action yesterday. Anyway, I hope that Strontium Dog is good for y'all and that Mongoose will get down to releasing something for us Slaine afficionados. :roll:
The posties are staggering it regionally.
<construable as political>They don't want to puck people off. It's not about pay or non-specific 'modernisation'.. it's some very specific objections they have to some fairly clumsy changes being forced through.. and some irrational figure mainpulation by management...</construable as political>
Still missing my 2000AD sub, though..

You’re not alone mate, mine hasn't arrived either, although letters posted yesterday have arrived, so go figure. I guess there’s no guarantee that mongoose has had the time to ship all pre-orders yet, we'll just have to wait and see.
As for Royal Mail, as a business we are no longer using them for essential mail, and if more companies do this then I can't see them carrying on for too much longer, so the workers will have some real problems, especially finding work in the current economic climate.

Yeah, I just had the last Royal Mail delivery for the day, and no SD... 
Still waiting for mine. Still insanely envious of your score.dreamingbadger said:
I asked Matt about my preorder and apparently they're waiting for stock to arrive in the UK. The expectation is it'll arrive today or tomorrow and then ship out the same day.samvail1 said:
I guess there was a small advance supply on hand and some pre-orders were filled from from those and the rest of us will have to be a little more patient. Which I'm finding very hard to manage... :twisted:
I can taste the frustration! :evil:samvail1 said:

I notice that Strontium Dog has moved from pre-order to add to cart... and the character sheet is up!

My copy arrived today as well, which is nice given that I only placed the order a few days ago.
