Sunday: Continental Trains

It is interesting how we become accustomed to the every day things that are around us.  In the UK, there is little that I find exotic about trains.  Abroad, even trains, trams, buses etc have an other-worldly charm about them.  

So, back home now and it is good to be back.  Our cat sitter has not disappointed and left us the usual wonderful note:

'Yesterday, when I opened the door, both Fred and Max were sitting at the top of the stairs, their faces were totally sleepy, I obviously woked them up :-)...........today only Max welcomed me at the door :-) I called Fred several times and then I heard him throwing up.....but it does not mean that he is not in the mood for lunch!'  And so on........
