Can't you order the uk-versions via Internet? After all - this is the European Union. Besides them trying to break everything that they send across the channel, I always got what I wanted.

Hehe, no, I mean EVERYTHING. The book was only the most skilled mutilation. To date I got one CD and thre sets of DVDs from over there - all the jewelcases and DVD-boxes were broken. The CD and DVDs were ok, though. I suspect they have a special hammer in every post office in the country which they use on every parcel to Germany ("Bloody German! Here, take this - the war is not over till I say it!"). Evil or Very Mad
