Excellent cookery book.
This is an excellent cookery book and I would recommend it. We had the same one for so many years and it was used so much that it fell apart. So pleased that I was able to get the same one

Good cookbook
What didn't work was that the book was in good order except it had a very musty smell i had to spray it with fabreze to take the stink out of it which has and now I shall start using it. I had my previous book the same as this one but it had been so well used thar I couldn't read half of the recipes I had my first one for about 60 years so it was well read

Excellent cook book
I bought this book when I left university and had to fend for myself in the kitchen. I have used it daily ever since (40yrs !) but it eventually fell apart so I got a new one, second hand, but in good condition. The recipes are excellent with a good range of different meals and many interesting ideas covering starters, main courses and deserts. I recommend it to anybody.

trip down memory lane
This was the book that inspired me to cook back in the late 70's. But it has some absolute classics in there - good foundation recipes which are still good to have up your sleeve (not literally, obvs). Fond memories and it was pretty sophisticated for its time

My most used cookery book.
This copy of this cookery book was purchased as a present for my Granddaughter, she is in her early twenties and I thought she would find it useful as it has lots of easy to follow basic recipes. I have had my copy for at least 40 years.

Old Favourite
I had this book many years, ago and gave it to my son who then mislaid it in a house move. It's, an old favourite and the recipes are so familiar. The book shows signs of much use, but it is quite an old book. I had my original some time in the mid 1980's. Postage was prompt, considering all the postal strikes.

Recipes with pictures ...Hurray!
I had this book when it first ever came out. The recipes within all have a picture which is always helpful, plus each recipe has easy instructions to follow. Having replaced the one I lost I am delighted to have got another.
