Went to Tescos Pontypool yesterday morning and had a quick look at the magazines, but no sign of the "bookazine" on the shelf. The write up on it sounds quite good and I'd like to have a quick browse before/if I buy, so I will be keeping a look out for it.
Have any of you grapes actually bought one, and if so how do you rate it?Forbidden Fruits make many Jams.Comment

I doubt you will be able to browse it, as these types of publication tend to come in a plastic cover due to the enclosed seed packets.Originally posted by ladylottie View Post
Its very annoying.

I think between us all, we could compile a superb down to earth magazine of our own, with all our various seed swaps included at a fraction of the price...now thats a thought..??...just came to me...lol

Sorry, couldnt find it anywhere - I asked in Sainsburys but they dont have any plans to stock it.Comment

Looks as if the only people to get it are the ones who have "pre-ordered" it from the GYO Homepage.
I suppose it's too early for anyone to have received the pre-ordered bookazine yet?
I'm still trying to make my mind up whether I really need it or not - I get so much good information and advice from both the GYO monthly magazine and all you lovely grapes.Forbidden Fruits make many Jams.Comment

It looks like it might be something good for somebody just starting out but not that useful if you've already got a pile of seeds and a rough idea of what you're doing.
Some of us live in the past, always talking about back then. Some of us live in the future, always planning what we are going to do. And, then there are those, who neither look behind or ahead, but just enjoy the moment of right now.
Which one are you and is it how you want to be?Comment

I preordered one and havent received it yet.Originally posted by ladylottie View Post
As a newbie I thought it would be useful. The seed packets alone would I imagine be the half the asking price of the mag.
