At the printers

..we are sitting in a conference room (our own), at the printers in Somerzet waiting for each set of pages to come off the press, each set of pages is called a form: one very large sheet of paper. We have four forms and each is printed on both sides 3000 times, so that's eight times through the press. The set up for each takes about 3 hours and then the actual run takes an hour or so. I have to check each form as the first sheet comes off the press and then sign it before they print the rest. So two plus days of sitting and waiting... dum dee dum and still nerves because I can't really get a sense of it from the muddled up pages on the giant sheets, and they won't do the cover until Monday when we'll be back in Provence.... I JUST WANNA SEE THE BOOK... hold it in my hands and turn the pages.... patience.
