LIFE IN THE UK HANDBOOKS (borrow at your library)
I just want to share this as this might help our fellow members save dosh on buying Life in the United Kingdom Official Handbooks.
We was planning to buy the handbooks this month for me to start reviewing and studying for my Life in the UK test but we had a thought that Lincoln Library might have the books for me to borrow. Funnily and luckily enough they have got the full set on-hand so we made a reservation using my husbands library card.
I was only charged 75 pence (25 pence each book) for reservation fee and paid it when I collected the books today at our village library. I am due next month on returning the books but hoping to extend if I aint finish yet. Overall, I saved nearly 30 quid for the 3 books. Not bad, eh?
Try to check on your local library as they might have the copies. Its worth 75 pence anyway.
This is the link we used to check if the books are available at the library.

Good tip - libraries are great
You've reminded me that I'm hacked off that a chunk of our main local library has been cordoned off for use by a private company as a Life in the UK Training and Test Centre. I'm always suspicious when public assets are used in this way by private money making operations - often rented out for a lamentably low sum by clueless public servants or someone has their snout in the trough.

Nice one Novie
Hope it will help others too.
There's some good internet practice/sample tests available for free also. These are definitely worth while as they give a full test allowing good awareness of the multiple choice and time to complete.

That's what I did, just borrowed to my local library and just paid for the reservation fee.
