James,

you forgot to convert files to UTF8.
iconv -f ISO8859-1 -t utf8 en_GB.dic > en_gb.dict
iconv -f ISO8859-1 -t utf8 en_GB.aff > en_gb.affix

I downloaded the hunspell en_GB from

http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Dictionaries#English_.28AU.2CCA.2CGB.2CNZ.2CUS.2CZA.29

and when building the Ispell dictionary I got the following error

ERROR:  invalid byte sequence for encoding "UTF8": 0xe9640a
HINT:  This error can also happen if the byte sequence does not match the
encoding expected by the server, which is controlled by "client_encoding".
CONTEXT:  line 220 of configuration file "C:/Program

CREATE TEXT SEARCH DICTIONARY english_ispell (
   TEMPLATE = ispell,
   DictFile = en_GB,
   AffFile = en_GB,
   StopWords = english
);
