September 2025 round up
The year is flying by – it’s already October and shops are full of both Halloween and Christmas stuff! What I read September was also a bit slow for reading, I did a lot of listening, though. I’ve dropped back … Continue reading

Stef and I obviously had many, many thoughts on Peril on the Night Train as the transcription of our watch ran to some 3,000 words. And yes, I feel like there’s still more to say. So this week’s list may … Continue reading

Stef has returned home (boo), I’m back at work (ugh) it’s cold and rainy (sob). On the plus side Stef and I watched an episode of the 90s Famous Five last week so I can bring you our thoughts on … Continue reading

No (other) posts this week as Stef is visiting me. We have just watched Peril on the Night Train (the second episode of the new Famous Five series, not that it sounds like it) together though, so look out for … Continue reading

It’s September first today so apart from the Hogwarts Express departing from King’s Cross, it’s also the first day of autumn. It’s still fairly warm right now but I’m already wondering if my cosy cardigans will last another winter… August … Continue reading

It’s the very end of September now and temperatures have plummeted. We’ve had frost in the morning, so it’s not a great time for our boiler to have started acting up. It should hopefully be fixed by Monday afternoon, though. … Continue reading

The brief resurgence of warm weather is well and truly over, and I am writing this from under a cosy blanket. If I was in an Enid Blyton book I would of course say under a cosy rug. Rug meaning blanket is … Continue reading

Letters to Enid part 57 and Reading The Sea of Adventure to Brodie When I added this banner it was because I wanted to answer a question that had been asked. But why not use it to ask a question … Continue reading

And just like that, it’s September already. Summer isn’t over (if it ever began!) but the evenings are growing darker already. August round-up and Enid Blyton’s favourite words We have books of the week this week, these two which crossed … Continue reading
September 2023 round up
We are into October, so it’s time for September’s round up. What I have read I hit my goal of 100 books in September – though book 100 was a somewhat fluffy/cosy magical mystery rather than something to show off … Continue reading

Monday posts feel a bit repetitive at the moment. I did think about taking a break from the Secret Island and doing something else, but I think I should try and keep up the momentum and get on with it. … Continue reading

Despite sometimes struggling with the concept of time passing I do know that it is Tuesday, not Monday. I caught another nasty viral thing last week (hence the missing post) and I’m just getting back on track now. I have … Continue reading

Our Indian Summer has come, with a mini September heatwave which is honestly hotter than most of July or August was. I’m not ready for autumn or winter yet, so I’m not wishing away this bit of sunshine even it … Continue reading
September 2022 round up
September is over and with it went the last dregs of summer. We are now into October and autumn, but here’s what I got up to in September. What I have read I reached 100 books this month, which was … Continue reading

It is now the last week of September, meaning we passed the autumn equinox a few days ago. It is definitely feeling more autumnal now, much cooler weather and darker evenings. My thick cardigans have come out and I am … Continue reading

Having written the bulk of the below last week, I then failed to hit ‘schedule’. Two weeks ago we heard the sad news of the death of Queen Elizabeth II. Although some time has passed, the country is in an … Continue reading

That’s us into September now and the days are rainier (though still fairly warm) and the nights are getting darker much earlier. How much Blyton have I actually read in the past ten years? and The Enid Blyton Society Journal … Continue reading

This is going up slightly later than usual as I failed to remember to write this on Sunday evening as I normally do. So here I am, a day late, writing this and at the same time wondering what I … Continue reading

I’m still working on all those ideas that my holiday gave me, one of which will be up this week. Meanwhile the weather is turning cooler and wetter, though we’ve had a couple of warm sunny days, and the leaves … Continue reading
