With April just around the corner, Sam and me are champing at the bit to make a flying start to our Excellent Train Adventure, which is to ride on every railway in Norfolk within six months. Can we do it? Yes we can!
We spent some of Saturday morning making our Official Adventure Banner, and Sam really enjoyed making the lettering as snazzy as he could. I pencilled in some of the words for him as a guide, others he drew himself. And note the perfect, reversed “N” in “train”, which I love. I’ll be taping the parts of the banner together today….we’re not laminating it at all. I kind of hope that it will suffer wear and tear, rain-damage, etc through the summer, and we’ll end up with a battered souvenir for Sam’s memory box. Look out for us posing with it as we hobo our way around Norfolk.
Also today I’ll be writing a few letters to send to a couple of the more difficult railways to gain access to, and also to Sam’s preferred choice of celebrity figurehead for the challenge.
