I think my library will be opening again this week, but with limited staffing offering a click/call and collect service. That means I won’t be back yet but I can perhaps get some new books! Malory Towers on TV: a … Continue reading
Lego Blyton: The Secret Seven

Malory Towers on TV: Episode thirteen
I’ve come to this last episode wondering how it (and the series) will end. Will there be a huge cliff hanger? We already know why Darrell was asked to leave her last school, Pamela’s story was abruptly resolved when she … Continue reading

Previously Bill turned up at Anatoly’s flat to hide out, they made some plans and then Bill visited an old friend. Chapter 4 Bill dumped his pile over a rack and began to change. There was a dusty mirror with … Continue reading
