The Enid Blyton Society

The write-up is well done.
I see there were lots of books there - whole shelves of books looking very colourful.
Were they for sale and if so what was the price range?

The books were for sale Lenoir, on one shelf I noticed they were from £5, and some I would have loved to buy were much more expensive, over £100, so the price range varied. But they were all lovely to look at. It was like being in Aladdin's cave. Just wonderful.

What a lovely review, Keith. It's amazingly well-written and detailed. I feel as if I was there, hiding in the corners with a jam sandwich and a torch!

Hah I kept telling people that there was a suspicious looking character hiding under the stage.

Oh, that was Ming, was it? Explains a lot, Lucky Star, as I also saw a sort of apparition in the shadows, munching on something and looking a little wistful... and it turns out it was Ming time-traveling back to that day, using only the power of her imagination as she read the report! Smazing! I love a good paradoxical time-twister.

Borag Thung, anyone? Zarjaz?

I just read the report and had a good look at the photos and wish I'd been there. It sounds brilliant ... as for all those gorgeous books, I'm sure I'd come back totally broke! Nice to be able to put some faces to familiar names as well.

I would have liked to have bought a few books. Would some of the proceeds from book sales, go towards maintaining the E.B.S. website?

No!! The proceeds from book sales went to the various dealers selling the books.

Okay.

Thank you, Tony.

Sorry! I know this is early, but I seem to rememer Tony saying that the hall had been booked for next year(?) and I was wondering if you have a date for that, Tony, because I'm seeing Wicked on the 2nd of May because it's cast change, and I was wondering if it clased with the EB day?

I think Tony said the EB Day for 2009 was the 9th May, Steph.

Oh good!

I would hate to miss my last one before Uni!

When the forums were being transferred, I had a look at the pictures from previous EB days. And found a picture of Pippa-Stef!

There are photos of many of the forumites, Bannerman.

True, Julie2OwlsDene.

Pippa-Stef, may I ask when your birthday is, please? How old will you be then?
