A Day In The Life Of An Enid Blyton Character..

Post by pete9012S »

Here's a game that may stimulate our grey cells and take our mind off things.
Let's pick an Enid Blyton character, and one line at a time describe a day in their life.

Lets keep it to twelve lines of information per character and post as many times as you like after the person before you has posted a line.
Try and number each post (1-12) for continuity.

The person who has posted line twelve can pick the next character, or leave it to another poster to pick a new character.

Here's a complete example of the way it may progress:

A Day In The Life Of Twit The Peterswood Baker:

1.Get up at 4am and have a cup of tea and bread and butter
2 Bake loaves of bread to deliver around Peterswood
3.Put boots in bread basket.
4.Load basket with loaves of bread
5.Compile list of rounds to deliver to today.
6.Chat to PC Goon as I leave bakery to go on rounds - what an oaf he is - large feet though!!!
7.First delivery at The Ivys - no money here not worth robbing them.
8.Offered cup of tea at Daykin's kitchen - money here,may come back and rob them.
9.Back to bakery for more supplies - running low on brown bread.
10.Four loaves delivered to Rods - good customer - will still rob from though when convenient.
11. One loaf for the cobbler - what a surly, grumpy $$$ he is!
12. Last loaf to Miss Twit. Makes a nice cup of tea. May decide not to rob her gaff...

Get the idea??

Ok, let's start for real -one post at a time as many times as you like after the person before you has posted:

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)
