Candour?

Long-term friend Bill Seabrook has written to say that yesterday (which was publication day for Expect Me Tomorrow) he received an email from Amazon, concerning his pre-order for the book.

The heading said, Arriving today: Expect Me Tomorrow

Is this a witty comment on Amazon’s own delivery service? Or an acknowledgement of what it’s like to receive stuff from the outside world, on this lovely Scottish island?

Thanks, Bill!
