Honestly...never read a single one.

reading wasn't my thing when I was little. I used to ride on the parcel rack of my brothers bike all summer, looking for newts at the motorbike track or my dad would give me an old thremostate out of his Gas board van to take apart.

If my mum was able to get a dress or skirt within 10 yards of me it was an achievement. I remeber crying hysterically once because she made me wear a dress to my own birthday party. I sulked for the entire party.

Reading really wasn't something that I did!!

How could you not have read these when you were a child? Were you a 'St Clare's' person instead? Or just not into those sorts of stories? Darrell Rivers is the heroine, and there's also a 'DarrellRivers' on MN, who must also be a fan (unless it's MaloryTowers in disguise).

Enid Blyton wrote them.

Malory Towers was the name of the school! I haven't read them for ages, I wonder if they are still in my Mums loft.........? Would it be embarrassing to read them at my advanced age?
