The emoticons tend to lose a lot of their impact when used so liberally!

There is some information on Georgina Hargreaves here:

There has been a lot of water under the bridge since this thread was started back in 2009, Kenneth. Georgina Hargreaves posts on these forums from time to time and she was a speaker at the 2012 Enid Blyton Day in Twyford. She told us how she trained at an art college in Bolton, and how she used family members as models when illustrating books. We saw her in action, drawing witches and jellies and all kinds of things at lightning speed. A lovely lady - it was a privilege to meet her.
