Part of my order is the calendar. Calendars have a somewhat limited use time.
Effectively using January is "normal". But it looks as if I may also not be able to use the calendar in February, since sea fright takes a while to cross the Atlantic.
The books and calendars where available by mid-December and the reduced shipping was supposedly only meant for the pre-order that ended in December as well. So why where the packages for Europe not put on a ship in later December or early January? There is no communication from Ook about the reasons for this continued delay.
