Re: Who do you prefer?
I like them both but Jack Trent remains my firm favourite - especially as I have been re-reading the Adventure series for the umpteenth time recently.
Jack Trent or Fatty?

Re: Who do you prefer?
The idea of the game is to use your choice as one of the next two... so Fatty needs to be one of the next choices.

Re: Who do you prefer?
Hmmm. Lucy-Ann is sweet, but I'll take Fatty because he's one of the most memorable and colourful and hilarious characters Enid ever created.

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)

Barney, definitely. I've only read one of the Barney series books, but I liked him immediately. Julian is too pompous and terribly "grown up" at times.

Barney I think, although both are resourceful independent lads.

Re: Who do you prefer?
Tough but it's George. We get to know her better over the course of the 21 books and though both are quirky characters I think she is more individual. Plus I prefer Timmy to Miranda.
