Two weeks ago I marked ten years of the blog. Then I came down with tonsillitis (very florid tonsillitis according to my doctor…) and wasn’t up to doing much of anything for a week. Not a great start to my 11th year of blogging, but never mind. After a course of antibiotics I’m back on my feet and writing again.

I telephoned Imogen Smallwood and discussed my hopes with her. Imogen gave me Barbara [Stoney]’s address and suggested I write to her.

Normal Wright remembers how he organised the first Enid Blyton Day in the Enid Blyton Society Journal #79. I envy the casualness in the way he says he telephoned Enid’s daughter!
