Dodgy books

I was just looking to find hints for the identity of "Daisy Meadows," author of an incredibly popular series of fairy books for pink little 7 year-old girls. One site looked promising, so I clicked on it... and the Council's web filter kicked in, and said that the site was blocked, due to a "78 percent chance of erotic and sexual content."

This is even more incongruous than when I was trying to find information on Hastings' Jack-in-the-Green folk festival during a lunch break, and the site was blocked, since it fell into the banned category of "recreation and pornography."

We're supposed to have filters here too, but so far no-one I know has encountered them, so I decided to google 'Daisy Meadows'. If you ignore the sponsored links the thing that came top was a website for a licenced hedgehog breeder. Didn't know you needed a licence to breed hedgehogs, but I think it's an American site so maybe you do over there. Very cute pictures, didn't find any porn though.
