Thanks.
In "Spiggy Holes", what is the name of the young local man who helps the children in their escape to the island?
Bonus point if you can name his brother with the car.

After all this time I had to get the book to make sure.
Yes, George is correct. His brother with the car was Jim.
Congrats. Over to you.

Not quite, it was the last item but it wasn't Peggy who takes it...
