    They didn't look like mis prices though so maybe they have gone up just because of demand? The 5 box set of Bible codes for instance has been in most of the remainder type shops for a year or more at £5. I wonder if we will get the ones we ordered

    I didn't bother with the Palin one but I did buy the Mock the Week one as my son would love it.
