Journal 73
Just been looking at this Journal and the contents. Looks great, I love the front cover. Something to cheer us all up when it pops through our letter boxes.

Re: Journal 73
Yes, the cover is gloriously jolly. The Journal should be popping through people's letterboxes any time - hurrah! Something to lighten these dark days as you say, Julie!

Re: Journal 73
O Frabjous Day! Callooh! Callay! The Journal has arrived together with my copy of Life Stories from History, the latest Society booklet. The sun is shining, the conservatory is warm, I know what I'll be doing this afternoon. I might open a bottle of Sauvignon Blanc. I was interested to see John Lester's article on Five go to Mystery Moor, that book is next on my list for a re-read. Happy reading to all.

Re: Journal 73
Mine hasn't, probably due to irregular deliveries these days, but it's arrived in Germany!

Mine popped through the letter box this morning, so that will be my reading matter over the weekend.

Mine has landed as well. Looking fabulous as always. So glad to read Tony's editorial and see some good news on the subscriptions front for once. I shall enjoy it over the weekend.

Re: Journal 73
Yes, it does! In spite of all the restrictions this year I do feel that the time has just slipped by so quickly. Mind you, for several years I have felt that Christmas comes every six months nowadays!

Mine also arrived yesterday - making up for the previous one taking several days longer than most.

Re: Journal 73
Really enjoying the Journal so far. Some great articles in this issue.
I always start off by Tony's Editorial, as interesting as ever.
I had no idea that the S.S, were real children, such an interesting article from Angela.
Read John Lester's - Five Go To Mystery Moor - I love this book, it's full of mystery, legends and mist.
Read John Pickup's - Secret Seven. I'd forgotten a bit about this book, and so must give this a re-read. Totally forgetting that it was mainly Peter and Janet, who were in this book.
Will read the rest over the next few days, taking my time.
Thanks to Tony and all the contributors for their articles.
