Courtenay, try it. It works for me (well, sometimes).

I agree with Chrissie. You should try to read more Blyton before bedtime or any other time if possible, Courtenay.

Thank you Sixret - it' is great to be back and rereading Five go Off to Camp as well!

Francis is right, there's nothing better than a compelling EB book to fall asleep and have suspenseful dreams.

I really recommend Bedtime Blyton. The only thing is that when Anne starts yawning so do I! The Famous Five always fall to sleep so quickly and I find I do the same as if I am camping out with them and breathing all that fresh air. There really was a lot more fresh air in the 1950s at least during the day when coal fires were not going strong.

Yes they are suspenseful but somehow safely so. Far removed from modern hatreds and wars and politicians.

I agree, the FF books divert from the strange world we live in.

What are you doing now?
I'm still waiting for the eye drops from the eye doc to fade away. I had my appt. 3 hours agao and it seems to take forever...

Don't worry you will soon be reading again!

Chrissie777 · Post by **Chrissie777** » 13 Apr 2018, 22:48

Now it's gone. Feels so much better.

Francis, what will you read next when you'll be done with "Five go off to Camp"?
I will read "Valley of Adventure" and then "Sea".

Two of my favourites, Chrissie. I think this weekend I'm going to re-read The Boy Next Door, as Julie's sequel to it is now on as the weekly serial and I'm looking forward very much to the next chapter, but it's a while since I read the original and I could do with a refresher!

Chrissie777 · Post by **Chrissie777** » 13 Apr 2018, 23:46

Courtenay, I also plan to reread "The Boy next Door" and then Julie's continuation story once it will be complete in a few months. Looking forward to it!

Courtenay · Post by **Courtenay** » 14 Apr 2018, 09:37

Well, I'll begin the original today, since I have the weekend free, and I should think I'll finish it in time to read part 2 of Julie's new story. It's nice to have a day off with not much to do other than read and enjoy!!

I read The Island of Adventure just before I went to sleep last night. I dreamt about the TV show Firends, trying to catch a train home from somewhere strange, and Keith Chegwin! Still trying to work out the connection between all those.
