I actually had this issue. :-)
Thanks so much for the lovely blog...it brings back such great memories of reading as a child and being a member of the Puffin Club. It makes me want to rummage through all my boxes of books and papers and see if I can find that Puffin Club member's booklet I once had. It's a real treat to see the old issues, pictures, and badges. Thanks for all the hard work.
Best wishes from Canada!
Andy (a once-upon-a-time Puffin)
