    For some reason the three rabbit recipes are missing from the new hardback edition:confused: I wonder why this is -I know rabbit is not as widely eaten as it used to be but it isn't that hard to find and it's very cheap. Strange.

    That's odd because Waterstone's in Worcester are selling it at half price:confused:

    It is a good book and the recipes are thrifty and simple with a nice old-fashionedness about them.

    Haven't seen you around for ages Kiwi, nice to see you again;)

    I bought the paperback about a year ago in one of those cheap bookshops for £2 I think. Should have bought a whole pile of them and could now be selling them on Amazon.....To be honest I haven't made that much from it, but must get it down and have another look...

  • just thought I would say the book people have this £7.99
  • I just checked my Amazon wish list and it's gone...... think somebody has bought it for me...... :j but Amazon are doing the paperback version for £6.69 with free delivery.
    I won't buy it if I can make or borrow it instead
