voxpop Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 I have both versions and the second edition is worth every penny of £4.99 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cat Burrito Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 I've had my copy since the mid 90s when it was first published. I think it's fair to say anything with Tony Bacon's name on it is always going to be at least half way decent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
