With due respect but speaking truth, this has definitely made the book look inferior



However for someone who are familiar with Martin, they will like it...

Martin looks like a funeral director who can't afford decent trousers or a hat:rolleyes:. Where did that coat come from? "I have nothing up my sleeve":cool:
Glad to know that the photo is being changed :j.

Martin,

You may remember that I wrote to you some months ago about alternative formats for the book.
Did you talk to the publisher, and am I going to be able to read this one?

I get the impression that the woman on this board would prefer to see you in a crocheted posing pouch (dayglo orange naturally). In true money saving fashion I can loan you one (however please put a polythene bag on first ... hygiene and all that sort of stuff).

From my point of view I would like to see a picture of you handing me a large cheque ... we are not talking size here .. we are talking value, something with at least 5 zeroes with at least one non-zero digit at the start and the decimal point after all zeroes.

As a television personality (?) I think your photo should be on the front cover which will make the book stand out on the shelves and recognisable as being "that guy off the tele".

As a Prime Position On The Bookshelves Shifter for the last book I often found it amongst the food diet books instead of its rightful place right in eye view

WTG Martin :T

That's a much better photograph depicting a REAL moneysaver. NOTE: the hands in pockets :cool: :rotfl:

Personally, i think a loincloth would look good, but then again most women with a pulse wouldnt get past the cover.;)

You'll note the pic has now changed - this is because amazon has updated the pic hence its automatically changed in the above!

Speedy was this about brail books? If it was sadly the publisher wasn't persuaded - i wanted to do a tape/cd version but it wouldn't do it

Had to go onto the amazon site to check out the new pic cos the ones above still show the 'funeral director' image.

Much improved, Martin. A lot more user friendly (and I'm sure Judi and other 'women with pulses' won't get past the front cover very quickly )

I have taken issue before with how Amazon pairs up its 'perfect partners' (having seen 'Father of the Pride' paired up with 'Deep Throat) but Martins Money Diet' reaches new highs

Did anybody else notice that the perfect partner is

Perfect Partner
Buy 'The Money Diet: The Ultimate Guide to Shedding Pounds Off' ... with 'The Two of Us: My Life with John Thaw' today!

I didn't even know they were an item. :rotfl: :rotfl:

PS: if you click on the picture to enlarge it you get the old 'undertaker' look
