As John Pickup says-- the Blyton characters are immortalised -- as John.Keats says in his ' Ode to a Grecian Urn'-- where the beauty of a particular.being is immortalised on canvas , in the verses of poetry or in a book

I didn't spend too much time wondering about them,but I have to say I love some of the continuation books where Fatty and Bets marry and where Diana and marry Barney and Snubby marry Lucy-Ann. And those 2 families meet and BIll and Allie are still around but live at Craggy Tops. Love them. Of course Bets would marry Fatty. I would like to marry him too !! Even more so than marry Barney but Barney would come a close second ! And then perhaps Snubby and finally Timmy the dog, endless devotion and never answers me back !

I like the idea of them returning to Craggy Tops. Maybe Jack earns a fortune as a bird photographer or becomes the next Attenborough and can afford to get fresh water piped in!
