    Got a copy in Sainsbobs today as I had a voucher for £4 off a £20 spend so at £6.49 it was almost a freebie :D Looking forward to settling down with it once I'm in my PJ's (which will be very soon!)

    I am tempted but like others I have far too many cookery books. I had the Jamie one from the library and couldn't find a single useful recipe that was in budget for us.

    mortgagefreeinthree.com is also good for reasonable recipes, she used to post on here as Memory Girl. I also love thriftylesley and her recipes.

    I bought it today from Waterstones! It was quite surreal when I was in there as John "Boycie" Challis was autographing his book but I had to walk straight past him and then there was a power cut!
