Enid Blyton Celebration in Beaconsfield

[Tony Summerfield]

I mentioned in the editorial of the latest Journal that Beaconsfield are holding a week of Blyton-related events starting on June 29th, but at the time that I wrote it I had no further details.

I have now been given a link to this and you will see that they are celebrating the 75th Anniversary of Enid Blyton's arrival at Green Hedges:-

Kari Dorme has told me that further details of events will be added to this page as and when they become available, so watch this thread!

Thanks for the link, Tony. I'm popping these dates down as I really would love to see what these celebrations are going to be like, and I do want to see the model village of Beckonscott, too.

[Eddie Muir]

Thanks from me, too, Tony. Chick and I have been planning to visit Bekonscot this year and with any luck we'll be able to do this on 29th June.

[Lucky Star]

Thanks Tony. I shall do my best to attend this event. Perhaps we could get a few of us together for it?

[Francis]

Thank you Tony for letting us know - would love to get there during the festivities.

[Pippa-Stef]

Lovely! Count me in!

[Eddie Muir]

Me, too!

[Daisy]

Here's hoping.... but can't be sure yet.

I've made a mental note of 29th June, but at the moment it's too far away to know whether I'd be able to make it or not. Apart from anything else, it will depend on whether the suggested get together in Beckenham goes ahead, as I think that was also pencilled in for June? I doubt funds will stretch to me having 2 trips out in one month.

I'm keeping my fingers crossed, as hubby of course is still working, but I would like to see what this festival will be like it sounds good!

[Poppy]

Looks like it going to be good however, unfortunatley it's to far away for me to come for just a day. I hope everyone who attends has a great day though!

[Maureen1954]

Totally awesome!! Hope everyone who attends has loads of fun

[Tony Summerfield]

I have been sent a couple of posters for the forthcoming Blyton celebrations at Beaconsfield.

[Julie2owlsdene]

Looks exciting, sadly I don't think we'll be in that area at that particular time.

[Eddie Muir]

Great posters, Tony.

Chick and I are planning to visit Bekonscot on 29th June.
