Light a candle for Enid Blyton November 28

Post by Maureen1954 »

I thought it would be nice if we could all light a candle each in remembrance for Enid's anniversary of her death and to pay our respects.......

Below is the link and when the page appears just simply...

a) click on a candle that has not been lit,click continue

b) it will then open a new page and you can write your own personal message and her initials,click continue

c) it will then open a new page saying country and where you can enter your name,click continue

The candle will stay lit for three days.

God bless Enid and may she rest in peace

Kindest regards

I've done one, and I entered EB into the group name box, so if others are lighting candles do the same and we will be able to see them all together.

What a lovely idea. A simple token of respect! It's strange that I can always remember her Birthday, but never the date she died! :|

I lit my candle earlier but I don't think it joined the group of Enid Blyton ones though I typed in E.B. Nevermind, I wrote a message and think it is a very good idea for a website. :D

It won't have if you used full stops, the group is just EB, but it doesn't really matter.

I think it has to be EB, not E.B., that might be the problem. If you click on Search at the bottom of the page and type in EB, the results will show up. You can always have another try, Poppy.
