After a year of not living nearly slowly enough, getting pent up about the proper use of semi-colons and the like, worrying about the cost of printing in Australia and stressing about the thousands of things it takes to put books together, we’re happy…nay, relieved to say The Slow Guide to Melbourne and The Slow Guide to Sydney will be published from 1 October and will cost $29.95 each. Quite unexpectedly on time. See slow guides (top right) for the hard sell because, right now, we’re going back to smell the roses. Oh, and if you find mistakes, do let us know. But not until AFTER CHRISTMAS!
