Monday #175
I’m back from my holiday, so we’re back to our usual schedule again this week. I haven’t yet sorted through all the photos I took, but I will perhaps share some on my next Monday post.
Monday #174
Once more its beginning to look like summer and the weather seems to be improving. This month is usually one of the most vibrant when we’ve visited Old Thatch in the past, but unfortunately Blyton’s old home is no longer … Continue reading
Monday #173
Back to Monday and we have some awesome blogs for you this week. Fiona will be blogging for Wednesday and bringing you a review of The Rat-a-Tat Mystery. I shall be reviewing the second part of Five Go to Smuggler’s … Continue reading
Monday #172
I’m just starting to recover from a week-long bout of a nasty cold, but unfortunately I didn’t get to stay off work and then go off to the mountains (or seaside) to recuperate. It’s probably just as well as I’m … Continue reading
Last Monday in July
Well well well! Its the end of July! July! Where has this month gone?! We’re in the middle of summer already and the dreaded D-month is fast approaching. Madness. So given that we’ve got one more week left on July … Continue reading
Monday
This week has brought a lot of Blyton-y things into my life (along with rather too much rain for my liking). Firstly my latest journal arrived from the Enid Blyton Society – #57 Summer 2015 to be precise. In the … Continue reading

A Song of July – A poem by Enid Blyton
To fill in the gap as we have no contributor today, I’ve chosen to bring you one of Blyton’s Poems called A Song of July. Softly the river goes swaying along, Dreamily singing its rippling song, Round by the mill, … Continue reading

Making the most of Monday
Well Fiona and I have both had busy weekends, having both been working a six day week, and Monday seems to be the only day we’ve both got off. I think we’re both about to collapse in a heap, but … Continue reading
Whoops… it’s Tuesday.
We had a much needed blogging break last week, and I then totally forgot to start back up again! We’ll get back into the swing of things I’m sure, though. We’ve got our schedule sorted for this week at any … Continue reading
Back to Work Monday
As you well know, I was visiting Fiona up in Dundee this week, and we had a very nice, sunny, busy time. So apart from failing to blog yesterday, because the train was late, we’ve been pretty good in blogging. We’ve … Continue reading
Monday
We’ll hopefully be heading for the beach by the time you’re reading this (assuming the weather sticks to the forecast). The latest chapter of Cathy’s Barney Mystery fic will go up on Wednesday, then I plan to review another Noddy … Continue reading
Monday
So it’s another week, and the weather seems to be up to all sorts of tricks at the moment. It’s been awfully muggy today but now it seems to have cooled down a bit. Anyway, we’re back on track with … Continue reading
Tuesday is the new Monday
It’s my belief that Tuesday is the new Monday. This could be ascribed to the fact that I forgot to write a Monday post this week until it was too late (ie late Monday afternoon) or it could just be … Continue reading
Prize Giving Monday!
So after last week’s competition, which I’m sure you’ve been eagerly waiting all week for (despite only having three comments!) I’m sure you’re desperate to know who the winner is! I shall keep you in suspense no longer and can … Continue reading
July Flowers
I know, I’m a little late once again for these flowers, but you would be surprised at what gets pushed back and back when you have lots more good ideas. Anyway, here we are: July Flowers from Enid Blyton’s Nature … Continue reading
Prize Give-Away Monday
Well we’ve reached the magic number of one hundred followers on the blog, so as promised we’re going to give away an Enid Blyton book to one lucky follower. I’ll get to the details in a moment, but first what’s … Continue reading
Melting Monday
Blimey it’s a teeny bit hot isn’t it? We’re heading right for a Blyton summer if we’re not too careful! I shall feel like the Famous Five on their train down to Cornwall tomorrow I’m sure, as I’m taking the six … Continue reading
Monday
We’re trying to get back to our usual routine here, so it’s back to my turn to write the Monday post. We had a couple of exciting moments behind-the-scenes on the blog this week. We reached 21,000 views and we … Continue reading
Maybe Monday
Gosh is it Monday already? It would appear so! So after leaving Fiona to do the last two Monday posts, I’m back (oh no I hear you cry!) but I can promise you some spiffing blogs this week. Our Wednesday … Continue reading
