he opening scene was typically Blyton-ish, with the children getting over a severe bout of 'flu. They're due back at school very soon...but before they return their doctor tells them they must first recuperate on an extended holiday in some foreign country where its warm! Hurrah! I wish my mum had sent me off on holiday everytime I had a cold. But something that left me amazed and astonished was the fact that Bill kept the destination of the holiday a total secret from the children until they arrived, on the feeble basis that Kiki might hear the name of the place and repeat it out loud in public, thus potentially giving away their whereabouts. Oh, please! So, as Bill is supposedly on a secret mission to spy on someone, he keeps the destination secret throughout the entire trip...which is to say that the children arrived at the airport in London and checked in, waited in the departure lounge, boarded a large plane, flew for hours and hours with passengers all around them and stewardesses wandering about, then landed at a foreign airport and finally drove another couple of hours to their hotel...all without any clue as to where they were going! Bill eventually laughs and tells them they're in a place called Barira "some way from the borders of Syria." And that's all we get, folks!By the way, it goes without saying that Jack took his parrot on the plane, "smuggled under his coat." Imagine those endless hours of travel, with a parrot as talkative as Kiki! And where did Kiki poop?
