Hey petunias!

It’s time for an update on the Shipping News!

So! Here’s where we are at as of today:

AUSTRALIA + NEW ZEALAND + ASIA:
All pre-orders have been sent. New orders are shipping within 24 hours of placing an order. HOORAY! Please note: this does *NOT* mean you’ll get it within 24 hours of placing your order. We ain’t Amazon, and we don’t have a crew of unicorn drones. YET. So yas, please note usual delivery times apply!

US + THE AMERICAS:
All pre-orders have been sent. New orders are shipping within 24 hours of placing an order. HOORAY! Please note: this does *NOT* mean you’ll get it within 24 hours of placing your order. We ain’t Amazon, and we don’t have a crew of unicorn drones. YET. So yas, please note usual delivery times apply!

UNITED KINGDOM + EUROPE:
Our boat got cleared through Customs + the workbooks landed in their warehouse on the 23rd November as we’d been told they would (at last!)… BUT……… it seems that their system got itself in a tangle + they have been holding off on orders, expecting MORE workbook stock to land in their warehouse. This has held up ALL orders coming out of the UK which is bonkerdoodles + frustrating-as-heck.

We’ve been pulling extra hours to get this whole clusterfuck sorted out, and now have their managers sorting the issue out for us because frankly this just isn’t good enough.

We’re working with them to sort out the problem as fast as possible (they DO have ALL THE STOCK THEY NEED to ship bundles + orders out to you!) and get your workbooks shipping quicksticks. We’ve asked for their firm commitment to have everything sent out by December 1.

I can’t say how sorry I am that it’s taken so long… please know it’s been out of our hands, and we’re doing everything we can to get these beautiful books into your hands.

Also: related but unrelated… I just started diving into the rabbit hole of Ancestry.com and have discovered my heritage leads back to England, Wales and Denmark. Which maybe is the reason for my obsession for UKTV? Either way… I feel like I need to come visit y’all in my mother countries! (Maybe when Beth is no longer a toddler because travelling with small children makes me want to stab myself in the face with a cucumber.)

So, all that to say: UK/Europe/Africa: your books are COMING. I am so freakin’ sorry that you’ve had to wait longer than everyone else… but the wait is nearly over!

And YES – you will get a shipping notification in your email when yours is sent!

I know you all are so very excited and impatient to get your books.

We’re doing our very best to make it happen. Some of those things that we have to wait on are out of our control – including Customs + warehouse inventory systems!

It’s always a frustrating adventure + my team + I are doing everything in our power to get these babies shipping as fast as we can.

We’ll continue keeping you up to date. Thank you for your excitement. Thank you for trying not to wee every time you hear the postman. Please try and refrain from sexually harassing him, but only if you can help it. We all know that you’re only human.

Hopefully next time I write this update it will be:

WORLDWIDE: FUCK YEAH EVERYWHERE SHIPPING!!!!!!
