LETTER PAGE

 A letter from John Scott, Lowestoft.  
Dear Enid Blyton,
In the story “The Children at Green Meadows,” I read about the P.D.S.A. Van and I thought I would love to see one of the vans, as I love animals. Then when I went to the “Royal Norfolk Show ” I saw one of these vans. The gentleman in charge showed us round the van, and we saw the big bottles of medicine and boxes of pills, the special operating table and all the surgical instruments. So I am now a Busy Bee!
Yours sincerely,
John Scott.

(I am glad you saw the van, John. I do wish we could have a special Busy Bee Van, don’t you?)

A letter from Jane Lloyd, Wolverhampton
Dear Enid Blyton,
I have some very exciting news to tell you. It began when there was a programme about cats on the wireless. I wrote to the B.B.C. telling them all about Timmy, our cat. So down came the B.B.C. man and we were recorded with Timmy that very afternoon. Will you please listen to the wireless on July 13th?
Love from
Jane Lloyd.

(That really was an exciting bit of news, Jane. I wonder how many of our readers heard you and Timmy on the programme!)

A letter from Patrick, F.F. member 043312, who gave no name and address.
Dear Enid Blyton,
I can’t go to school because I walked on a piece of glass on the beach and cut my foot on it, and I had to have two stitches. I said to the doctor, when are you going to take the stitches out? And he said, I’ve taken them out already!
Love from
Patrick.

(I’m sorry about your foot, Patrick. It really is unkind to throw stones at bottles on the beach and leave glass about.)


An interesting mix of letters this week – and two of the three are from boys.
