This has been posted on the 'Steven Wilson Remixes' FB page, looks like there are specially commissioned beer mats for the Burning Shed folks...

My remixes of both XTC / Dukes of Stratopshear's Psurroundabout Ride and Jethro Tull's Stormwatch are officially released tomorrow (Friday 18th October) in sets with copious extras including 5.1 mixes.
However, please note the message below from Tull management regarding Stormwatch for fans who pre-ordered in the UK and Ireland:
To our fans in the UK/Ireland and worldwide purchasers from the Jethro Tull Store.
...
We are sorry to announce that due to unforseen demand, manufacturing and distribution problems, Stormwatch 40th Anniversary Force 10 Edition will now be released in the UK and Ireland on 15th November.
This has had a knock-on effect on the Jethro Tull Store. For those of you worldwide who have bought from the Jethro Tull Store, we will be able to send out your copy from the 15th November. By way of apology, we will send everyone who bought the album from our store a limited edition set of 4 specially-commissioned beer mats depicting Stormwatch and other album covers.
Once again, sincere apologies from us at the Jethro Tull Store and all at Warner Music for this delay in shipping – but we’re sure it will be worth the wait!

LOL! Wow...what a cluster. Yeah, I got the message from Shed as well. Oh well.

 

[SHB]

I hope all the record labels know about the “unforeseen demand” for Stormwatch. May be it will sink in their skulls the demand for 5.1 and start to mix more albums in 5.1.

MOST ESPECIALLY RHINO/WARNER WHO RELEASED THIS SET!

The mats are probably cardboard, but what the hey . I just want an Ian squiggle!

Yep...It ain't over until it's over!!
They removed the DVD version selection option..but left the rest as is.

I gave up with Amazon UK and ordered in Spain. With Prime free shipping, it's more or less the same price and I will get it on Sunday

The beer mats can be used to polish my PF Immersion Set marbles!

I don't think you'll be polishing them with a bit of cardboard! they said beer mat not a bar towel.

Don't get too excited, that's a bar towel, this is a beer mat:

 

[splinter7]

Bummer my bad
In my neck of the woods, a mat is more like a towel with a rubber backing. The cardboard thing we would call a "coaster".
But I guess it would still be hard to polish the marbles with a rubberized mat.

 

[beerking]

Buggers have put the buy DVD option back on....wtf.....grr
Still no explanation e-mail from Amazon...he says impatiently..

https://www.amazon.co.uk/Stormwatch...ro+tull+box+set&qid=1571377398&s=music&sr=1-1
I bet quite a few unsuspecting folk are buying the expensive option.
Completely dishonest by Amazon.
