I once wrote a riotous poem about "The Faraway Tree," and tho' I say it myself it was hilarious, but I haven't a clue where it is now. I'd love to see what you would do with that snooty, snobby Darrell Rivers from Malory Towers!!!

Cuz if that's what happened it really goes to show how screwed up being a 'grown up' is. so judgemental n 'aware' of the various slots we can throw ppl in. And if not, then u have a very sadistic streak for re imagining and kinda destroying good old fuzzy memories! <br />Ps: remember Julian from the naughtiest girl in school? Now he n Elizabeth could totally turn out to be those two from 50 shades of grey :-D Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7382033.post-30356196356419833532014-03-18T19:13:15.769+05:302014-03-18T19:13:15.769+05:30Oh liked this very much!!

I grew up reading The Famous Five and your version of their grown selves seems ummm different (for lack of a better word) and dark (not that there's anything wrong with it). I love your idea, but I think I prefer the Five as kids better. Just saying :) Maryann Taylorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01163582340349332638noreply@blogger.com
