    I don't see why not :)

    If not, one of the very early posts in this thread points to their website where you could order it for £1.25

    Come to think of it - buying by post means adding the cost of a stamp... so you might as well go for the on-line option :)

    Johanne - I'm bidding on a set of Look and cook books now on ebay. If I win you can have the one I already have but you're not having Auntie Winnies one! :p

    Need to get back to old style in modern ways, watching the pennies and getting stuff done!

    Perhaps I'm blind, but I can't find a place to order it online - only where to write to with a cheque/postal order/cash for it......
    There are 10 types of people in the world, those that understand binary and those that don't

    In many cases it helps if you say where you are - someone with local knowledge might be able to give local specifics rather than general advice

    19th sounds pretty old to me!

    So... does anybody have an older copy?

    My Nan gave me her old copy and it's the 16th edition. It's lovely!!

    I'm just about to order two copies of the new one for my children and I've still got my copy from school which is the 37th edition.

    I feel a bit of an addiction coming on :o

    You're right, that's all I can find there too.

    Sorry.

    I sent a cheque today for my book. I know they say to allow up to 28 days for delivery but I wonder how long it actually takes to arrive, does anyone know? Can't wait to get this book sounds terrific!!

    Hi Jo4

    Mine took about a fortnight to arrive counting from the time I sent the cheque to them by 2nd class post. It came yesterday so I'll be baking all weekend and filling my freezer! It is quite a slim volume but truly packed - I especially liked the section about pastry - can't wait to give that a go.

    It often takes pretty much the full 28 days... mine did, and others have said as much too.

    Ho hum :)

    Yeah, I wonder how long it would take to collect the whole set? :)

    I always think that's the mark of a good cook book. If it's tatty and stained it's because it gets used a lot :)
