Over a year ago a flyer from the Kate Bush Club stated that there were
only a few left.  It seems very unlikely that there are any left now.
In any case, the last I heard to order internationally you had to
write Kindlight to find out the price for your location.  I think you
even have to include a bank check made out in pounds to cover their
return postage.  Kindlight is the only source for new copies of _Cathy_.   
I have seen a few of them floating around for sale, check Goldmine.  The 
last address I have for Kindlight is:

       Kindlight
       PO Box 30
       Welling, Kent DA16 3DL
       UK

By the way, you mentioned "reading" the _Cathy_ book.  There's really
not much to read.  _Cathy_ is a collection of John Carder Bush's
photos of Kate as a young girl with captions for each photo.  If
you're expecting a biography you'll be disappointed.  The photos are
wonderful, however.

The current rate is #12.10 for one year in America.  Any decent newspaper 
should have a section with foriegn exchange rates.  You can send a bank
check payable in pounds or apply the exchange rate yourself, add 7.5%
for their conversion costs and send U.S. currency.  The address is

PO Box 176
Orpington Kent
