Sounds like a book I will get, not just yet since the price is a little high
here in Sweden. Perhaps I can get it via Amazon UK (cheaper shipping) for less.
Nope, that would be $48 plus shipping so it's about the same :(
Aha! I can get it for $37 from amazon.com including shipping! That's 281 SEK for
the Swedish readers.
Är det någon som blir med på ett samköp till SweLUG#5?

I'm sure it is!
Once again, congratulations!
