    Oh yes, tomatoes are already possible here (outside even), so bananas and avocados can be grown local in north west Europe in a few decades max! :-D

    (if our most popular banana doesn't go down because of sickness)

    ultimately the sodium and clorine atoms where there when the planets were formed, and they have one of the strongest natural affinity covailent bonds known.

    I've actually already ordered it, it ended up being about $3 cheaper than what GB said, I'm guessing because I'm on the east coast and he's on the west

    No, I bought Solo and episode 8 and have now all Star wars movies which I'm watching for the first time all in the chronological order :p Started last night with episode 1. Second one tonight. Episode 3 likely sunday night (am watching them at a friends place), then Solo monday night likely.

    I was properly entertained again last night. Love how everything looks and how the epic classic storyline builds up from here (padawan Obi, the sights on Coruscant, the trouble between Republic and the trade federation, the innocent Anakin etc.). Besides, if you're a fan of the setting and have enjoyed Battlefront 2 like me its great to now see those locations in the original movie again. Naboo's capital, vehicles, the droid army. Yeah... i really like this stuff :p

    How does publishing through amazon work drift, I've always wondered - do they do all the fulfilling orders and shipping or are you involved in that process at all? And do you decide to print a certain number of books beforehand or is it all done on demand as orders come in?

    I didn't publish through Amazon. It's a traditional publisher, Grosvenor House who now offer a self publishing option. I like the fact that they are a "real" publisher rather than a new company dedicated to self-publishing. The initial payment includes a year of being listed on Amazon (which they arranged, same as they'd do for books they were publishing), but after that I will have to pay £39 a year. They do all the order fulfilling. I can buy books directly from Grosvenor for print cost plus postage, which is how I'll sell them in the shop I work at.

    It's print on demand which means I can order 1 or 100.

    Sorry this doesn't actually help at all with what doing it through Amazon is like. I didn't even look into that option.
