  • Excellent advice & recipes

    Have just returned from an excursion to a local charity shop and have found an excellent reference book. It's called Food From Your Garden and contains information on growing cooking and preserving your own fruit & veg. It's published by the Readers Digest and looks ancient.

    Have had a quick look and there is loads of advice on planning, planting and tending your garden and masses of recipes for cooking individual fruits & veggies as well as loads of recipes for jams, jellies, chutneys & pickles.

    Not only that, it speaks to me in my language (pounds & ounces).

    Bargain for a quid!

      I find charity shops & second hand book shops great as the books are old and don't get wrapped up in the jargon of today and do thing like my dad would have done .... anyone know where I can get DDT & Nicotine from

      Never be afraid to try something new.

        Try Ebay

        You can get some books at bargain prices .. I recently got The Readers Digest Encyclopaedia of Sewing for about £10 with postage in near perfect condition.
