Well done Nigel. Your humourous and knowledgeable comments on all things Blyton and non Blyton play a big part in making these forums the great place that they are.

If Nigel liked long posts, he wouldn't have posted so many short ones. ;-) :lol:

If Nigel's posts had been long ones Rob, he'd never be off the forums, and we wouldn't have much time then to spend in the pub. :lol: :lol:

It was a nuisance. An adventure was one thing - but an adventure without anything to eat was quite another thing. That wouldn't do at all. (The Valley of Adventure)
