Re: Gary Russell Speaks
Definitely one of the best EBS Days which is praise indeed since they were all so good. Sigh, I do miss those trips to Lodden Hall.

Re: Gary Russell Speaks
It was a brilliant day indeed. In fact all the Enid Blyton Days were thoroughly enjoyable and sorely missed.

The only thing I don't miss is getting to the hall with £150 in my pocket and leaving with 1p!

hearts mad delight,
Sing on, sing on, and when the sun is gone
I'll warm me with your echoes
through the night.'
