  1. Hooray! Starts 29th June.
  2. Famous 5 were my favourites of Blyton's books, I know schools don't like her work to this day, but she got lots of kids into reading.
  3. Yes the tower block fire is awful, I've always hated those buildings. And they seem to be building even more of them now.
  4. Same here too, although it did cool down at night time.
  5. I've only read the first one so far as well. Wonder if they'll show both series?
  6. I remember it in the Kenneth Branagh version, honestly can't remember it from the book, but at least Branagh's version didn't look quite as ridiculous as Hollywood's monster!
  7. I loved the series, my fave TV series so far this year. I was going to ask you if it was as good as the book and if they stuck closely to the book's plots.
  8. Oh yes read that yesterday that it was Yeats's birthday, he had an interesting life!
  9. That's interesting chesil, who's in it?
  10. Meant to be really hot today, was nice this morning although still a little bit breezy in the shade.
  11. Yes! thank you for that news Little Pixie! Would be great to finally be able to see it. Only about 2 years behind but better late than never
  12. Yes probably, I was too young to realise though. It was like a live action cartoon though.
  13. Meant to get really hot over the next couple of days - odd as yesterday the wind was so cold I was wearing a fleece! And today probably won't even need a jacket.
  14. I remember he made the body from the remains of an executed criminal, and someone else's head!
  15. I hate it when shows have a mid-season break, as I can never remember what happened when it starts again!
  16. Have a good break Shirley, yup you do need to take clothes for every type of weather.
  17. Same here, the sun has broken through occasionally but generally it's been pretty grey, and very windy.
  18. It was very camp by today's standards!
  19. The TV show hasn't been shown in the Uk, except on Amazon Prime which I don't have - think it's a bit unfair especially as it's filmed here (well Scotland which is still part of the UK!).
  20. That brings back early memories of watching Batman, sad news. And about Glenne Headly too, at a fairly young age.
  21. The weekend was lovely, but today is cold and grey and windy.
  22. Some of the later books are even longer
