Thanks Nexus for your very kind offer. However, we are leaving Denmark in the midle of july.

As it is, I have already arranged with very helpfull people to leave the Doyle Guide at a sail loft in Barbados for my pick up upon arrival. Great!

Amazon.uk do not have the current Trinidad & Tobago edition - only an old version. It does not matter if it is used items. When they come in to DK from outside the EC, you must pay around 25-28% VAT+tax based on the order value PLUS shipment. Also a handling fee of just under 30 USD is added. When you buy expensive stuff this fee is irrelevant, but try buying a book in USA at 25 USD, add shipment, multiply then by 1.25 and add 30 bucks.. Sucks
