Saw this on eBay - very good condition, but I'm not about to pay the price!
However, I found it interesting that these were sold in bundles of five books in Boots - Funny that it was a bundle of 5 when there were 8 in the set!

Even odder than you thought, Rob, as there were only six books in the set, so it seems odd to leave one out!Rob Houghton wrote:Saw this on eBay - very good condition, but I'm not about to pay the price!
