Hi Moonraker,

Not my arm, I'm afraid - I wasn't wearing jeans. I think it might be Viv that you're talking to, but I'm not 100% certain. Anyone recognise that arm?!

Can't help wondering what's in that mysterious-looking brown paper parcel that the gentleman behind you is putting in his bag!

Those two little girls in the picture with Robert are his granddaughters, and his daughter is in the same picture, but the little girl on the Noddy illustration appears to be different.

You are right about the other picture Keith (taken straight off our site!), Barbara Stoney is in the middle.

I've had another look, and realised it's my wife, Jane! :oops:

I'd just gone & checked that my top wasn't stripey before finding out who the owner was!

I first heard about the special day from a friend in London. I live in Winnipeg, Canada and am planning on attending EB Day in 2007. Is there anyone else out there who has come or is planning to come from another country?

Welcome Zoekast - I feel like asking if your brother ever got his book back!

Wish I could have made the EB Day! :( I don't think I can make next year's either waaaaaah! So have lots of people on the forum met face to face then??

Hey Topsy Turvey. Thanks for the welcome. In answer to your question- NO!! My brother never asked for the book back and today it is part of my rather large Blyton library. My brother moved beyond the children's book stage, but I never did!! I have since added a dust jacket to the book in question (Had to buy a whole vintage book just for the dj!!).

Hey Zoekast! Oh well, your brother won't know what he's missing then :) I don't think I've ever tried very hard to collect books with their DJ's before...I feel that if I can afford the book (in its good, old, original text) - I feel very blessed indeed already!! :)
