Did Enid or Gillian or Imogen read the Little House on the Prairie books?

Barney says: I haven't read anything that says they did, but that doesn't mean they didn't!

Hi, Barney - I've been reading Enid Blyton and her Enchantment with Dorset by Dr. Andrew Norman. I was intrigued to read that following her marriage in 1943 to Kenneth Darrell Waters, she spent her honeymoon in St Ives, Cornwall. As a regular visitor to St Ives I just wondered whether anyone in the Society knows where she might have stayed - i.e., local hotel, guesthouse or private cottage. My guess is that it might have been Hotel Tregenna Castle as this is a luxury hotel with golfing facilities. It would, however, be great to imagine her staying in an old smuggler's cottage by the sea with a 'Famous Five' adventurous atmosphere. Does anyone know where she stayed or may have stayed in St Ives during this time? Thanks.

Barney says: I don't know whether there's any record of where Enid and Kenneth stayed in St Ives, Freda, but it would be interesting if anything comes to light.

Hello, I've just joined the Society and I need to change the postal address for the Journal. Please can anybody help? Thank you.

Summer vacations are going on and I spend most of my time in reading Enid ma'am's books. I really want to thank Enid ma'am for writing such marvellous books. THANK YOU ENID MA'AM.....

Barney says: There's no better way to spend the summer hols!

Hello! How may we have the rights to Enid Blyton's books to translate them first and do from them audiobooks and e-books in Finnish?

Barney says: You would need to contact Hachette UK (Hodder), Markku, as they own the Enid Blyton copyright.
