First stage... books.... and equipment!!

Dan Lepard's "The Handmade Loaf" and The River Cottage Bread book have been purchased....... Thought I might get going tonight with my first dough... but it turns out I need all manner of "equipement" if I'm to give this a serious go. In terms of ingredients of course I need flour (obviously!) and yeast (fresh if possible), but it also seems I need items like a proving basket, "baking stone", a "peel", a special razor thingie to cut the bread before baking (this is crucial!), a refillable spray bottle for water (also crucial!).... oh, the list seems endless!!! So, like all good hobbies, this one's going to cost some money......
