You can use any Hunspell dictionary. OpenOffice has a large selection. FYI, an .oxt is just a zip archive with the dictionary files inside of it. You just need the .aff and .dic files. Open Sigil's preferences, go to spelling and click the button on the button to open the user dictionary location. Put the .aff and .dic files there then restart Sigil for them to be available for use.
Well thats annoying as I went to OpenOffice to get my dictionary, this could mean that the GB English dictionary OOo use isn't unicode compatible.

Does anyone know when else you can find GB English dictionaries?
