After several attempts at logging in using my WAB ones I gave up and just ordered mine without creating an account or anything. The order seemed to go through just fine and I payed through PayPal. Can't wait to see them now! Woohoo!

Re: 2007 Calendar

It did take a little working out, but i got there in the end! That's mine ordered, can't wait for them to come, they look like they are going to be gorgeous and at a very reasonable price too as i was expecting to pay postage on top!

Many thanks for making it happen

Re: 2007 Calendar

Just paid for mine.

If someone wants to pay by cheque, they don't need to create a wab account do they? It seems to ask you to do this to print an order form out..

I'm presuming you can just send your cheque with a note stating delivery details etc..

Re: 2007 Calendar

If you print out the invoice and send it with a cheque it just makes it easier for us to return the invoice folded in a 'document enclosed' wallet stuck on the envelope, so we don't have to re-write the address and make any errors. But not a major problem if you send a note instead.

Oh yeah I realise it's easier that way Stuart. It's not for me by the way, I've already paid for mine through paypal. I was thinking of others who can't come online at the mo, or who aren't members (Yes I'll try to convert them!).

Re: 2007 Calendar

I think it might be worth pointing out to anyone who is having trouble
that the checkout button when looking at your basket contents does not work.
(or at least didn't for me)

Instead I clicked on checkout in the row of links at the top.
Maybe it's different if you have an account, not that you have to make one to
order (and pay) for your calendars.

Hi Dai,

Sorry to hear that the shop is giving you some trouble. I made a quick change to the instructions that might help out a bit, but if not then just feel free to send a note and cheque to the address and I can sort the rest out.

Cheers

Stu

Here's a block of the thumbnails down the side of each month, but quite a bit smaller than they appear in the calendar

Calendar 2007

My calendar arrived this morning, all I can say is *** EXCELLENT ***.

Congratulations to all who have helped in producing this fine product. It's nice to see in print some of the photos that I can remember turning up in the gallery. The cover photo is absolutely brilliant, the calendar avatar (right) does not do it justice.

I usually use the BBC Wildlife calendar (turned up yesterday), not any more.

A suggestion that did not occour to me at the time, so for next year (there will be a calendar next year ?), a brief description of the main monthly species.

Thumbs up Re: 2007 Calendar

Had no trouble ordering mine - when I did it, it did tell you to use the checkout sign at the TOP of the page. Apparently my two are on their way so thanks for getting it sorted on time. Stu!

Mine also arrived this morning and I agree ***EXCELLENT***.

The whole production is scintillating and it is great to see so many wonderful images in print rather than on the monitor. There will have to be another next year to show how much the photography is improving month on month.

Well done Stuart and those responsible for a beautiful calendar.

Re: Wab Calenders

Mine have arrived while I was out this morning but the rotten postman has bent them!!

I think they'll bend back OK but I was a bit annoyed! Anyway they are beautiful and I must say they got here very quickly (I only ordered yesterday!) Well done to all involved (except the postman!)
