Yes, I'm here, slightly flustered (my wife's been in hospital for a
minor op.,
leaving me - literally - holding the baby. You don't realise how much
you
appreciate sleep until you don't get any for two nights in a row ...).

Anyway, I won't take up too much bandwidth - this is the GZG list, after
all.

Jed has already posted details of joining the SFSFW in the US so I won't
repeat
that. If you can get a bank draft from your local bank (shouldn't be too
hard
from most reasonably sized branches) then that's the easiest way to pay
us. We
can now accept cheques in US dollars as well as sterling (I don't think
I've
updated this bit of the website) although we may need to ask you to pay
a bit
towards this since it costs us to convert it. If you want to get in
touch with
me directly concerning exactly what you want to order, I can work out
the
postage and convert to dollars so that you can get a bank draft for the
correct
amount.

Schoon, our unofficial evangelist judging by the comments above, is an
expert on
getting overseas cheques arranged so he will probably be able to give
you some
pointers.

Apologies to Jon for hijacking his list, I now return you to your normal
(GZG)
programming ....
