All my editions have Sardine, so that clears that little mystery up nicely. Mind you I have read one of the books I'm sure where Snoek was mentioned, but I much prefer Sardine! :lol:

I guess it all depends, as always, on what we first encountered. The first Barney book I ever read was the second edition hardback I bought from a school jumble sale in 1981, so I've always been familiar with the name Snoek, even though I had to ask my mom what it was! 8)

I loved Snubby's remark 'That's torn it!' :lol:

Great start, Julie. I see that Snubby is still playing his imaginary instruments. Nice cliffhanger too, I wonder what Barney's news is.

It must be Enid's influence of reading so many of her books. :lol:
