Have five charity finds to report this weekend - three had Waterstones "Signed By" stickers. Here are the first two, plus a small purchase I made.
An Honourable Deception HB 1/1 2004 by Clare Short - £1
I already have this, but I do not leave nice signed books behind for £1.
My Favourite Ingredients HB 1/1 2008 by Skye Gyngell - £1
Skye is an Australian chef who is best known for her work as food editor for Vogue, and for winning a Michelin star at the Petersham Nurseries Cafe. Really nice book this - quite chunky and weighty. Retailed at £25, and has three book mark chords which is more practical for a cookbook than a standard piece of fiction.

Also, a tad impatiently, I bought James Forde's new EE card signed from a charity seller for £3. Not often I do this, but I do not mind if the money goes to charity. This is #492.

Another two brilliant finds Nigel as you say you can't leave them for £1 looking forward to seeing your other finds , a great purchase also it's not expensive at that price and it's even better when the money is going to charity .

Two nice pick ups, Nigel and the card is worth it especially if it's for charity.

some great buys Nigel and I'm sure you could always get your money back selling the Forde if your request comes back
