The biggle association's stall in the Deventer book fair.
The adventures of Biggles bring on fond memories - of adventure, of aviation, or adversity, of admiration, of many other childhood charms. The stories cronical the adventures of James Bigglesworth, his flying companion Algy (the Hon. Algernon Lacey) starting out in the 'white fokker' from the Gobi to Antartica and even India. My favourite character in the series is Ginger (Hebblethwaite) who charmed me from his first appearance in Biggles and the Black Peril. In all about 100 stories were written by Capt. W.E Johns and they continue to fascinate people (like the members of the international biggles association) even today.
