Hello there!!

I am having problems sending (but not receiving) PMs....they get as far as my outbox and then don't seem to go any further. Has anyone any advice???

Cheers,
BOODI

Thanks ever so much for the birthday greetings and good wishes. I had a nice day, although it is sad to be getting older!!!

I fully agree with Spitfire!! The Six Cousins are (and always have been) my very favourite Enid Blyton books and I first read them almost 40 years ago. I totally recommend them and I trust (indeed hope) that you will enjoy and derive as much pleasure from them as I did.

A happy medium would be nice. The interest in his appearance started when he was about 15 years old. Like me he is rather small, thus I think that he has a bit of a complex about his short stature and tries to compensate by styling his hair, using expensive after-shaves etc etc and training in the g...

Girls certainly learn to wash their hair, Katharine, but hair management is :roll: not high on the to-do list of any boy I've ever met.... :!: :?: Aurélien, you have never met my son and some of his male friends....you should see some of the preening etc that goes on in the bathroom. I was shocked ...

I never really liked Kiki...indeed I always found her a bit annoying. My favourite animal is of course Boodi and I also like Dark Queen!!

The various characters mentioned in The Mystery of Tally-Ho Cottage are also missing, namely: Mrs. Peters, Tally-Ho House, Mr and Mrs Larkin, Tally-Ho cottage, The Daniels family, High Chimneys and the Woosh family, who lived in the cottage at the back of High Chimneys (Mr. Woosh was the Daniels' ga...

BELATED BIRTHDAY WISHES ANITA!!!

I hope that you had a great day and enjoyed the chocolate cake. I wish you all the very best for the coming year and be happy...you are still ten years younger than I am....mind you, in my case fourty-ten does not sound too bad!!!

Well, "The Mystery of Tally-Ho Cottage" was a bit disappointing in terms of geographical details. Enid Blyton provided very little information. The only glues (sorry, clues) are as follows: (1) Tally-Ho house is situated down by the river. At the rear of the house a wicket gate opens on to...

I don't know where Dick is, but here in Baden-Wuerttemberg the schools don't reopen until Monday next, 11th. January. I always hate it when the holidays end as I detest early mornings. Seems most uncivilised to have to get up at 6h15, especially in the dark, cold days of winter. It is not quite so t...

If nobody else wants to do it, I can do "Missing Man" or "Vanished Prince" when I have finished "Tally-Ho Cottage". However, I don't have a great deal of time and have only reached page 59 of "Tally-Ho", so it could well be next week before I get around to &qu...

Good idea!! Give me some time and I will see what I can find in my favourite mystery, namely "Tally-Ho Cottage"

Ring o' Bells is my very favourite (and indeed one of my overall favourite Blyton books). I just adore the atmosphere of Ring o' Bells village and wood. However, I enjoyed all the Barney Books, although unfortunately I have never read the Ragamuffin Mystery so can't compare it or comment on it. Chee...
