Have a look at Julieanne Kost's Lightroom tutorials as well - she explains things very well IMHO.

There are some videos on the original Lightroom and LR2 at Adobe Video Workshop and some more up-to-date stuff at Adobe TV.

How about the Scott Kelby book, use mine as a reference when using LR3, tried to read it as a stand alone, but didn't work for me

I think a book would make good sense, watching the you tube tutorials have given me information overload, thank you for that Rich

Totally agree Martyn, just too much to take in and commit to memory. Found the book excellent , I just look up what i'm trying to do then follow the steps. Laid out in an easy way to follow and took his advice on setting up the original folders http://www.amazon.co.uk/Adobe-Photoshop-Lightroom-Digital-Photographers/dp/0321700910/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1325331682&sr=8-1
