Re: Enid Blyton on ABE
Good article I thought, it echoed my sentiments of how we grew up dreaming of having adventures like The Famous Five in a time when life was simpler and things like drugs and criminals with guns were unheard of.
I went on some great adventures reading the Famous Five books.

At least in "Books about Enid Blyton" He didn't put the Ancetdote of our favourite Non-expert!
Still interesting little article indeed.

Not sure about drugs, but criminals and guns certainly featured in the Famous Five's exploits!poddys wrote:Good article I thought, it echoed my sentiments of how we grew up dreaming of having adventures like The Famous Five in a time when life was simpler and things like drugs and criminals with guns were unheard of.

Thanks for that, Insanedoh. It's heartening to read the comments beneath the article.
