    I was going to post the same about me:(
    Work like you don't need money,
    Love like you've never been hurt,
    And dance like no one's watching
    Save the cheerleader, save the world!

    Was that some sort of pre-launch or the actual official launch?
    It says in a few places April


    Did nothing else interesting happen in 2004? icon7.gif

    I'm not 100% sure sra.

    If you went to the party and took your copy of The Money Diet and queued for days:rolleyes: .......well a long time:D , you got to meet Martin and he signed your book.

    As the book was on the shelves in my local branch of WHSmith on party day, I'm assuming the official MSE party was the official launch of the book.
