Re: A New Famous Five?
Just going to order this from Amazon, as its on for just over £10. With it having such a good right up from everyone thought I may as well give it a go.
Julian gave an exclamation and nudged George.

Let us know what you think too Julie. Hope you enjoy it.

Don't forget that although Amazon might offer a cheaper price than Play.com, you do have to add in the postage!Julie2owlsdene wrote:Just going to order this from Amazon, as its on for just over £10. With it having such a good right up from everyone thought I may as well give it a go.

I'm still buying it from my local bookshop 
"You're so sharp you'll cut yourself one day!" Hunchy said going to the door
"So my Mother told me that when I was two years old!" said Julian and the others giggled.

Re: A New Famous Five?
Very true, Tony. Fortunately for me, hubby is also buying a railway book, and so the total cost will be over £15, which makes it free postage.Tony Summerfield wrote:

Re: A New Famous Five?
I was looking around Chorion's site for more info on the FF Survival Guide and I found some pages that you can take a peek at online.
Quite interesting!

Hmm, the new Famous Five website makes ours seem a little old-fashioned!

Re: A New Famous Five?
A very slow-loading website for most computers, I should think! I played the game, and really, it gets me nowhere.
