The Famous Five 90s Series: Some (Funny) Captions
It’s not what I promised for this week but circumstances (ie me not feeling well,) have led me to throw this together quickly. I’d like to say there’s a story behind these captions, but other than “Stef and I were … Continue reading

Monday Again, and it’s Remembrance Day
We hope you’re all wearing your poppies today, as (in Commonwealth countries at least,) it’s Remembrance Day (also known as Armistice Day or Poppy Day.) We’re almost at 35,000 views (25 off as I write this!) as we’ve had a … Continue reading
Amelia Jane Again! part 2
I abandoned part one a bit abruptly (it was after midnight and it was already really rather long) so here I am continuing with part two and the other seven stories in the book. The next story in the book is Amelia … Continue reading
The Bonfire at Night: A poem by Enid Blyton
It’s bonfire night tonight, so I thought we should have a poem to celebrate. I’m going out tonight to see the fireworks, are you? You can also take a look at the poem we put up last year at this … Continue reading
November Monday
Gosh, so it’s the first Monday in November (seriously where is the year going?) and it’s also the week of our first birthday! Gosh doesn’t time fly! This time last year I was up in Dundee with Fiona and when we … Continue reading
Happy birthday to us!
The blog is one year old today! And what a year it has been. I like to think we’ve gotten to grips with the whole blogging thing by now, after a shaky-at-times start. We’ve racked up over 33,000 views in … Continue reading
Last Monday in October
October is nearly over, which means it’s almost November and the blog’s first birthday. The weather is definitely getting worse, temperatures are dropping nearly as fast as the leaves are falling from the trees. On Wednesday you can read the … Continue reading
Monday comes and Monday goes
So we’re almost at the end of October, isn’t that scary? Not to mention that early November, the 2nd in fact, will be the first birthday of the Blog! So we have that to look forward to! This week we have … Continue reading
Musings for Monday
Stef and I have had a very busy week, and we’ve come up with one or two exciting ideas for the blog. Hopefully they’ll work out and you’ll be able to see them in a month or so. For this … Continue reading
Monday in Scotland
It’s Monday and as the title suggests I am in Scotland, annoying Fiona, and having some fun. On Thursday we’re off to Newcastle to visit the Enid Blyton exhibition at Seven Stories, so hopefully next week we’ll have a blog … Continue reading
Apple Song – A poem by Enid Blyton
Stef has had a lengthy journey today, all the way up to Dundee to stay with me and so I’ve bashed out a poem for you all for tomorrow to save her having to start something now. Apples on the … Continue reading
Amelia Jane Again! part 1
Amelia Jane Again is the second Amelia Jane book, coming after Naughty Amelia Jane, containing thirteen more stories originally published in Sunny Stories. I’ve no idea what I paid for my copy (fourth impression, 1954), though I know bought it to replace … Continue reading
Last Monday in September
It feels like only a week ago I was writing about it being the first Monday in September, but no, my calendar assures me that was a month ago! This week we will have another post from Fred, talking about … Continue reading
The River of Adventure
First published in 1955 this is the eighth and final book in the series. I’m going to start by saying this is my least favourite book in the Adventure Series, and I think it’s the weakest too. From what I’ve … Continue reading
The Spider’s Web – A poem by Enid Blyton
I’ve been under the weather all week and spent Saturday in bed instead of at work. So, I’ve decided not to tax my sluggish brain too much and have typed up a poem for you. The Spider’s Web It hangs … Continue reading
