Betty MacDonald Monument Support

Hi Betty MacDonald Fans and friends,

it's Sven,

Natalie, I agree, there should be a Betty MacDonald Monument.

We need the support of every Betty MacDonald fan and friend.
Therefore join us, please and support the future Betty MacDonald projects.
We can meet each other on Internet but it's so much better to meet each other in person.
I really loved it. I enjoyed the Betty MacDonald Conference and Eurovision Song Contest in Oslo so much. Music is always a question of taste but there are so many fans who like Betty MacDonald.
I bet the Betty MacDonald Meeting in South Africa is great too but I have no time and no money to be there. Money makes the world go around.

By the way Betty MacDonald Fan Club only uses the fans' support for purchasing new original Betty MacDonald Items for the Betty MacDonald Fan Club Collection ( this can be very expensive as we know, remember the filmed Betty MacDonald Interview and other originals ) and for a future Betty MacDonald Monument in the name of Betty MacDonald's fans and friends.

I met so many great Betty MacDonald Fans and friends including artists and writers.
Perhaps some of them have a good idea who could create a very special monument in memory of our beloved Betty MacDonald.

I was reading the updated versions of the Betty MacDonald Items including Wolfgang Hampel's The Kettles' Million Dollar Egg. I was very amazed and impressed how many new changes, details, stories, comments and info I could find.

Congratulations, Betty MacDonald Project Group for such a great research and excellent work. Especially Lena, Nadine, Pat, Dan, Jack, Ron, Andi and Martine are doing an outstanding job.
Thank you, guys.

Did I mention Linde? No!? I'm such a fool. She is the best.
Linde, could you do me a favour, please. I'd like to send you my thoughts for Betty MacDonald Contest but to me it's too difficult to answer the Betty MacDonald Contest question. I was rereading Betty's books but I couldn't find any info about Betty MacDonald's favourite flower. Am I blind or just too stupid to find it? Help me, please!

I'm very interested in attending a Betty MacDonald Memorial Tour.
I would like to see the places Betty MacDonald wrote about in her books.
A friend of mine did the tour some years ago and met persons of the family who believed Betty MacDonald described them as Kettles in The Egg and I. My friend had the feeling that the younger ones ( the older members passed away in the meantime ) don't hate Betty MacDonald and even like The Egg and the Kettle movies.

Anyway - it would be very interesting to see Chimacum and the other places.

My special greetings to the Betty MacDonald fans in South Africa.
Who will win the World Cup?
Betty MacDonald already is World Cup winner because she is Nr. 1 in the hearts of so many readers from different cultures.

Betty MacDonald Collector Conference

Hello, Betty MacDonald Fans!
Here is Natalie speaking,

We are going to have a Betty MacDonald Collector Conference in October/November 2010.

Organizer for this Event are Max, Martine, Nadine, Dan, Silvio, Donna, Peter, Lena ( it's not the Eurovison Song Contest Winner Lena ) and me. If you wish more information about the Betty MacDonald Collector Conference 2010 contact Martine, please. She will be very happy to send you more information.

Come on and join because this will be a very important Betty MacDonald Event.

There will be a very interesting Betty MacDonald Collector Magazine with important Betty MacDonald Items. There are many Betty MacDonald Fans and Betty MacDonald Collectors who would like to support a Betty MacDonald Monument. Betty MacDonald really deserves something like this.

Dear Max, we know how sad you and your friends are. Your team will win the next game.
I'm very sure about this.

I wish you and the other Betty MacDonald fans a great stay in South Africa.

Bye for now,

Natalie

Next Betty MacDonald Honour Member

I'm Lara,

I'm very excited to hear who will be the next Betty MacDonald Honour Member.
I'm very proud indeed that Betty MacDonald's friend and author Monica Sone and Betty MacDonald's nephew, artist and writer Darsie Beck are Betty MacDonald Fan Club Honour Members. Not to forget our dear Günther who creates the most interesting Betty MacDonald Documentaries in a very good quality. Thanks A Million for this!

I hope more Betty MacDonald Interviews with Wolfgang Hampel will be published in the future. My favourites are the warmhearted and very funny interviews with Betty MacDonald's sister Alison Bard Burnett describing her outstanding sister Dede. Both had a very special relationship.

Wishing you a nice weekend and all the best in South Africa!

Lara

Betty MacDonald Collection News

Hello, I'm Marc,

Many greetings from South Africa.

It's a bit cold here. BRRRRRRRRRR.......................

Switzerland won against European Champion and Fifa World Cup Favourite Spain.
The swiss fans are very happy and we are not freezing any longer.

The Betty MacDonald Fans decided to purchase an offered original Betty MacDonald Item for the Betty MacDonald Fan Club Collection. Dan, our gifted writer is writing a great story for Betty MacDonald Fan Club Newsletter.

Philip, to answer your question. If I were you I'd read Betty MacDonald's books or one of the former Betty MacDonald Fan Club Letters. OK?

Good luck for our teams and all the best to the Betty MacDonald Fans all over the world.

Take care,

Marc

Betty MacDonald Contest Question

It's Philip,

I'm writing a story for the Betty MacDonald Contest but I have no idea regarding Betty MacDonald's favourite flowers.

My question is: Where can I find the answer?

Publishing a Betty MacDonald Magazine is a very good idea.

Wolfgang Hampel's interview with Mary Alice Bard is very interesting. She is a very intelligent lady. I'll contribute more info because I'm in contact with a Betty MacDonald Fan who knew Cleve Bard very well.
