Oileain – The Irish Islands Guide, is now back in stock. Many thanks for your patience if you have been waiting for it and if you have already ordered it it will be on it’s way.

The advanced copies of the reprint of Oileain have arrived and they look great.
The printers now estimate the delivery to be on Friday 21st of January – hurrah! However, given the new customs arrangements we can’t be reasonably sure of delivery till sometime the week after.
I’m going to say it. Apologies for the inconvenience.

Sincere apologies. Delivery of the reprint of Oileain was originally slated for 10 December 2021 but the printers are suffering from supply chain problems leading to difficulties getting the paper on time.
Delivery is now expected 14 February 2022.

The guide has stood the test of time very well so this is a reprint with minor updates and corrections. It is not a new edition so don’t rush out and buy one if you already have it.
We have changed the title to Outer Hebrides Sea Kayaking. This is to make it clear that it is a sea kayaking guide, easier to find in searches, and to bring it more into line with our other guides.
The files are at the printers but due to the current paper shortages it isn’t slated to arrive at the warehouse until Thursday the 24th of February. You can pre-order using the link below but please be aware that you won’t receive your copy until the last week in February at the earliest.

I have just received the following message from the printers. Sincere apologies for the inconvenience.

“Due to a fault on the binding machine, which has now been repaired, the books will not be ready for collection tomorrow as planned. They will now be collected on Monday and the transport company have advised us they will try to deliver to Cordee on Friday 3rd September, one day later than originally planned.

I will advise Cordee but to be honest I think it would be wise to keep in mind the possibility of the delivery slipping over to Monday 6th September.”

The printer’s proofs have arrived for Scottish Canyoning. I’m pleased to say that the quality is excellent and have given the go ahead to print.
