Birthday
Re: Birthday
I echo Courtenay’s sentiments - an easy one to remember too! Happy Birthday and thank you to those who put in the hard work to keep it going and the contributors who make it such fun.

Re: Birthday
Happy Birthday website - it's also my 'half-birthday' being born on 25th June. (And my elder daughter was 50 yesterday, so now I am really starting to feel old )

Re: Birthday
Happy sweet sixteen to the Enid Blyton Society website and the forums! I pop in quite often, though I rarely post; but it is great to see the community that has been built here—everyone brought together by a love of one special writer.
Here’s to many more years!

By the way, you’re a fellow Toffee, right? We’re not doing too badly at the moment, eh?
And hello, Anita! We are all well, thank you. I hope you and your family are keeping safe and healthy.

Very busy at the moment but I just had to stop by and celebrate the 17th birthday of the website and forums. Happy Birthday to us! What a super place this is to learn about and discuss all things Blyton.

Happy Christmas to Tony too. The marvellous cave keeps me sane with its never ending treasures, which Tony is constantly updating and adding to!

As Daisy says, Chrissie, we're saying Happy Birthday to the Forum 17, so I said, I wish I was 17 again.
