Hello TTOL friends. Just to note, "Long John" Julian's announcement just above had an incorrect contact for me. The sales page for this is here , a place many of you know well. Julian, the author of this series, has made me a primary reseller, which I am proud to be. Note that the 4th edition does not nullify the 3rd edition. The content is all new, and some coupons overlap, and some are exclusive (which is a good thing). Congrats & best of luck with this Julian Putley ! <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Clapping.gif" alt="" />

Julian Putley here. Just a note to say one of my 'nom de plumes is Long John's Son and to correct frank's info. If you wish to order a copy go to www.angelinacat.com/SALES. Frank has been servicing the needs of TTOLers for years. He is prompt and usually offers a price somewhat less that Suggested Retail! <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/handshake.gif" alt="" />

Sorry about being unregistered. I keep trying, but the system always says "Not allowed with this address". Don't know why, I was a member on an old email address and my wife had no trouble signing up with a new address. I'll keep trying.
We have 4 copies of the 3rd book with a lot of the good stuff used (Leveric's, Soggy Dollar, etc). How does the new book compare with the old for deals?

So how many copies do we need to buy? One per boat? Or one per adult?
JPH I spent my money on booze, broads, and boats...the rest I wasted.

Yeah, thanks for the orders, Bill, Perry, etc. To answer the question - the coupons are usable on all the BVI, so they pay off very easily. Folks often get one per crew (per couple) because of that.
Any other questions, contact be - see my message above (2nd from top), or my TTOL classified.

Just to update everyone. There are now five establishments that are offering FREE bottles of wine with dinner. The enchanting Sailor's Rest in CGB; Myetts, Peg Legs, Neptunes and Bananakeet. Many other freebies too. But of course most people buy the book for the short stories, humour and literary brilliance. <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/jester.gif" alt="" />

FREE Bushwacker at One Love, FREE Rum Punch at Ivans. There, you've saved the cost of the book and there's another 30 or so deals remaining... <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/dance.gif" alt="" /> Now, go buy a few copies!
