The Joy of Nigel


Oh bliss.


This Twitter site in the style of Nigel Molesworth, co-author (along with Geoffrey Willans) of the the St Custard's stories, is going to seriously exercise my creative writing skills.

If you didn't read "Back in the Jug Agane" or "How to be Topp!" or the others by the time you were twelve, then don't bother now. Yes, it's puerile (Nigel would say that sounds like weedy lat prep)and very very old fashioned. But, oh, how happy I am. I couldn't be happier if I found out that there's Bunty tweet group, with everyone speaking like the Four Marys or plucky orphans.

    But no one know wot to do about anything at the moment, so they sa the future is in the hands of YOUTH i.e some of the weeds you must have seen on X facter.

    I think it shud be MANDETERRY for bloggerz to rede about Sir Nige de Molesworth no matter how old they ar.
