Not sophisticated, I'm the sweet and simple kind
I want an old fashioned house, with an old fashioned fence

Re: Can You Complete The Enid Blyton Story Title?
so its more than one word...or hyphenated...? 
Originally it was only supposed to be ONE word that is missing, but if not then you need to stipulate.

Re: Can You Complete The Enid Blyton Story Title?
My apologies. 
If I've neglected to stipulate it then, I've stipulated it now. [The hint was "clo-se"....]
And, if I'm correct, there's only one other "missing-word" which it could be....
