Oh dear, it is obviously not our day today or else whoever set the questions managed to focus on the gaps in our knowledge of all things Blyton!!! Better luck next month Pete!

It looks as if one person is having a lot of goes at the quiz. Perhaps some of them should be deleted.

I was surprised at my score. I did know quite a few of them for sure, but a few lucky guesses in there too. Not the only person to get full marks though.

There have been some very crude ‘entries’ to the monthly quiz.
I hope they are deleted soon.
