EB Day Pics

Post by Tony Summerfield »

For those who were asking about pics of the EB Day, Stella & Rose's Books, one of the dealers present, have posted a few on their website at http://www.stellabooks.com - obviously these are largely of their own stand and mostly taken before things got busy, but they give a taster whilst we wait to hopefully see some of Paulo's pics.

Best wishes
Tony

I couldn't see any pics - just a brief mention of the day itself.

Am I missing something obvious pl?

Time Lapse

I'm afraid you are still all at sea Viking Star as you picked up on a thread from last year - you obviously didn't notice the 2005!

Never fear the pics will come.

Time travel...

Post by noddy13 »

Hey Tony..maybe Viking Star got marooned on the Island of Adventure, and while escaping up the Mountain down through the Valley, came across the Ship on she sailed away across the blue blue Sea. Moral..? Lifes always a Circus when you are up the River without a paddle or more importantly a calendar.

Sorry Viking could'nt resist that... hope you do make it soon... and the pictures will be with you sooner rather than later thanks to Tonys very subtle, very public, deeply disguised, mildly threatening and wholly innocent words of ... warning..?

Just a reminder/update that I hope to get a 2006 Blyton Day page up very soon, most likely at the end of this weekend. I currently have some pics of my own, plus some from Karl in Austria. I'm also in the process of getting pics from Nigel (Moonraker) and Prabhu (Noddy13) - although Prabhu's can't be sent to me until the 28th, hence the "end of weekend" date mentioned above. (So it's all Prabhu's fault we're waiting, hee hee!! - Nah, just kidding).

But think of the knowledge you'll have gained once your nephew has shown you how to the send pictures over the internet! Watch and learn, Prabhu, watch and learn. :D

More Pics

Post by Tony Summerfield »

A few more pics and a short review of the Day have appeared on Stella & Rose's website -

http://www.stellabooks.com/articles/oth ... y_2006.php

I don't know if anyone recognises the 'Noddy illustrator' in the bottom picture - I am not at all sure that it is one of Robert's twin granddaughters who are pictured with him above that.

Nice one of Nigel pondering on what to do next!

Best wishes

The website also has an old "stock" picture of Gillian, Barbara and Imogen. Imogen wasn't even there this year, was she? And the description reads:

"...Enid Blyton's older daughter Gillian Baverstock. Gillian is Patron of the Society, along with her sisten, Imogen Smallwood and Enid 's biographer Barbara Stoney (Right)"

I'm pretty sure Barbara is in the middle!

As for the picture of Robert's granddaughter... I did see these girls wandering about on stage, and they seemed to be "with" Robert in some way, like they knew him, but I don't know how they were related, if they were.

Extinguished? Oh, don't be so hard on yourself. ;)
