thank god i came across someone who hates this crap.i am 15 and i hate the whole series.it is the only series i hate with a passion.i am really marvelled at blytons ability of creating such annoying characters.they are stereotypical and exaggerated.also her fans argument that describing a character in limited words fuels their imagination is a poor excuse for her poor writing.worst series ever

Again, it&#39;s gas the way this keeps getting comments, and even funnier that the lunatic (or even lunitik) fringe <b>STILL DON&#39;T GET THE FUCKING IRONY!</b>

I was the same. Always Gnid. I did think it a most peculiar name. I think some adult eventually explained it to me.... when I was about 21.

Oh Jesus! You did the Gnid thing as well? The day I asked where the Gnid Blyton books were in the shop, I almost died of mortification!<BR/><BR/>I have to say, it's gas the way this keeps getting comments...

Oh what a jolly good romp through the memories, Terry McD!<BR/><BR/>I used to lap them up like Timmy when I was a kid but couldn't for the life of me understand why the stupid little gits would be so thrilled to get a friggin' orange and some measly nuts in their Christmas stockings. Yes, my mother explained the poor English sods' diet, war rationing etc to me later on.<BR/><BR/>More importantly,

they ruined my life too. i have a distinct memory of making a tearful and sincere apology to my mother for some minor transgression and being even more distraught when she broke her shite laughing at me.<BR/><BR/>"mammy," i said "i'm sorry i've been such a beast..."

Very good! I must agree, I always wished I could have been more like good old Julian when I was at school - most of the teachers disliked me, it must be great to be universally liked. I also had a thing about his <I>determined jaw</I>. I used to look at myself in the mirror and thrust mine out! George wearing a dildo eh? Would she think <I>that</I> was as good as a boy's?

You've really made me sit up and have some harsh words with myself. I'm now scrapping that post I was planning about Winnie the Pooh being a gay fascist wife-beater.

Cheers Rhys. I wonder what world is at the top of the tree today?<BR/><BR/>Perhaps it's fall out of the tree and sustain multiple fractures world?

hahaha! *bookmarks page* I'm glad you don't feel this way about ALL Enid Blyton books! The Magical Faraway tree had/has a similar effect on me. However i simply withdrew/withdraw from reality, its so much nicer out here...

Cheers for dropping by Keith. Next up will be my theory on why the folk of the faraway tree were actually just crusty tree huggers on acid.<BR/><BR/>Just kiddin'

Heh, very amusing! The Famous Five have been accused of many things, but they're not often accused of ruining someone's life for eating too much and getting up too early. I have to agree about the getting-up-early thing though; it's not absolutely necessary to get up at the butt crack of dawn every day. Mind you, they do go to bed early -- they're all in bed by nine.<BR/><BR/>I would link to you
