Bought my copy from Head Heritage when it first came out and was delighted when it arrived as Julian had written a message and signed it for me. It's a treasured item, but has been lugged over hill and dale so it's been well used too.
Last year I went with a friend to Castlerigg for the solstice and as we were walking back down the lane to the car we passed an old VW camper van and there in the window was the most beat up, sun-faded copy of TMA that I had ever seen. I immediately thought that if (or when) I have a guide book out there then seeing a copy of my book like that would be the greatest compliment that anyone could give me rather than seeing it in pristine condition on someone's bookshelf at home.
