No worries Bannerman65. It was the other two who were being rascals.
This is a Green Knight Book which means that it is a book by one of the most popular authors of all.

Re: Who was Fatty based on?
Comparisons have been drawn between Fatty and Billy Bunter....especially ventriloquism.
Fatty could be a combination of a number of people Blyton knew/taught etc.
A more brilliant Blyton creation has never existed.
