Re: when is the next day?
I expect Tony's still recovering from the last one , but hopefully the next one will be in May 2008! Too early to say for definite, of course. The last few have been held on a Saturday in May at Loddon Hall in Twyford, Berks.

Re: when is the next day?
Far too early to have fixed a date for next year, but as Anita says it is likely to be in May, second or third Saturday.
For those who missed the BBC interviews, we are eventually going to attach them to the EB 2007 section in the main website, but until then you can hear them Here

Thanks for making the BBC interviews available, Tony.

Re: when is the next day?
Taken from the Enid Blyton Day page.
If, of course, I counted it up correctly. If this years' day was the 14th, and the 2004 Day being cancelled, surely it is 1993?
I think it should be 1993.First held in 1995, the Enid Blyton Day brings together over a hundred people each summer for a day of all things Blyton.

Re: when is the next day?
You are absolutely right, sharp-eyed Ming!! It was 1993.
I bet you were looking at that page to see if 2007 had appeared.

Re: when is the next day?
Ming you sounded as cool as a cucumber!
I loved the background music, I listened to it twice, anyone know what is it called?
Ming could you post the whole thing? I would love to hear it!

There is always something else new to learn.

Susie, I'm afraid I have no idea how to post these things.
Almas, I'm gonna be jealous of you at the time. If I can't make it next year, the year after I WILL make it, by gosh!! (If I can)

I would love to meet you, Ming!
Anyways, is Manchester far from the place where the Society Day will be held?

I've taken out my atlas and I'm scanning through the England's map...
