Another Milestone

The next person to join the Society will become our 2000 member!! I admit this figure is a bit misleading as almost 1700 of these no longer subscribe!

This is fairly similar to a bit in an article by Nicolette Jones in the Daily Telegraph a couple of weeks ago. She wrote:-

'The Enid Blyton Society (founded 1995) is flourishing, with more than 3200 members posting on its forums.'

The number is actually 3268, but it would have been more accurate if she had added that about 3200 of these no longer post!! :lol:

Congratulations Tony, if I can persuade someone to become the 2,000 member do I get a prize? :wink:

Oh dear, I hope I have more success at drumming up interest for the EBS than I did at selling AVON. :?

Yes, I did post the very same in another thread! There are still a number of people who should subscribe that haven't yet. Come on, you know who you are!

My daughter used to love the Avon Lady calling - you should have recruited her!
