Guys
If you're after either the Chamberlain & Eliis book on British & American tanks of WWII or the Chamberlain & Jentz Encyclopedia of german tanks of World War two, get yourselves down to your local branch of "The Works", They're knocking them out at £3.99 instead of £20

The Works

Got to say I had never heard of this shop, and when I look at the store finder I see that I have walked past it in more than 1 town on soooooo many times.
Cheers for the top tip.

Look down the page, got mine on the 24th of last month

The Works does have good stuff from time to time, I bought Halberstadt's 'Inside the great tanks' for £4.99 earlier this year.

I remember seeing that, but I'm not allowed out much, especially with money....

I now have to use stealth techniques... sneak out early on a saturday morning and creep back in whilst 'the boss' is still asleep, being careful not to rustle any bags and kit-box contents too much, stash anything I buy in the pile and then try recover my casual composure before she gets up.
