Sounds intriguing and wonderful.

I have been hoping to find some resources to learn hypnosis and most of the things I've found have been expensive. I shall wait to hear more from others who have bought Anthony's book.

And honestly, I would have clicked "Order" just based on Chris' review alone if I'm not trying to save a bit of money. Heh...

If you remember Mr Jacquin, I was the very giggly (and probably drunk) fellow in the ruskin earlier this year that was both very interested and highly sceptical of all things hypnotic. My "I want to believe" attitude towards hypnotism had a good night that night conversing with you guys and Dr Jonathan Royal Bsc! (2 very different styles to see!)



Hi,

I do indeed remember you. See you in February no doubt?

Hey Jacquin - care to comment on your failure rate ?

Indeed, and hopefully after some nice member of my family has presented me with a copy of your book. Either way i'll probably try and grab 15 minutes of your time for a drink slash chat about hypnotism.

I've never had a lost item with the post office. I hope this won't be the first. I buy and sell frequently using the post office for delivery.

I think he's dealing with it in the best way possible

Things do go missing, and there is always time for a first.

Let us know what you think of the book

It's true, I used to work in a mailing claims department, a scary amount of stuff "goes missing". Shed loads of scammers claiming things go missing when they haven't been sent though, or trying to get a free duplicate :wink: :wink: ...just kidding (well I'm actually, I'm not kidding, there is, but i am in no way implying you are one of them).
On that note, my copy seems to have gone missing in the post! :lol:

I pay the 78p for signed delivery so people can't claim they didn't receive it. I hope it turns up tomorrow. When did you send it anthony?
