Thanks, Aurélien. :D

Here's an easy one:

In what month is Fatty's birthday?

December. I remember him being sorry his birthday came so near Christmas, because most people only got him a single present for both occasions instead of one for each! :D

Hmmm, it might have to wait a few days, as I'm on holiday at the moment and don't have any Blyton books with me! :shock: If I can think of a question to which I know the answer for sure without checking it, I'll post it, but otherwise it may have to be Sunday afternoon/evening. Sorry about that. :oops:

You got a perfect memory! :D (I couldn't even remember Enid ever mentioned Fatty's birthday!) :oops: :lol:

Fatty's birthday is mentioned in Chapter 4 in The Mystery of the Secret Room, María Esther. :D

And on that note, thanks for reminding me, Eddie. :D I'm home now, so here goes...

In The Mystery of the Missing Necklace, what colour balloon did Bets buy from the balloon-woman (who soon turned out to be not all she seemed :wink: )?

What was the nickname given to the "Vanished Prince" by the boys in his tent?
