@Olly398 banneton wise you can experiment with the metal poundshop bowls lined with a wet tea towel to see if that helps, it is a cheap way.
With bread books, every bread book seems to have people saying oh thats is amazing and then when someone reads that book and doesn't have the same experience it can be a little deflating. Hence my comment of finding the recipe and style for you.
Oh I recommend french bread flour, even the cheap hyper market stuff gives a nicer white bread, but that could be all in my head. Also try some of the freshly ground flours from the mills. Quite fancy a ride up to wrights mill in north london, see if you can buy fresher flour there at the factory shop.
