Don't know if others here would recommend it or not but the reviews
seem pretty good

It was recommended reading for our RHS2. It is pretty serious - I'd be
upset to get this for xmas.

Who said I got it for you :-p
Thanks for the info - I think it'll be fine for the person I have in mind -
and it was that or a festive garden tool :-)
Don't worry she'll be getting some nice prezzies too

I've asked Santa for The New Complete Book
of Self-Sufficiency: The Classic Guide for Realists and Dreamers by
John Seymour. Can't wait for Monday morning ... !!

Now that on the other hand sounds like a right page turner :-)))

Best regards and I hope you have a great Christmas
Tim
