Greetings my friends!! Welcome on this wonderful journey across our lovely island! Are you looking forward to it? I know that I certainly am!
I have commandeered a lounge car for the duration, I intend to travel in style! This is going to be my "salon" for the journey, so do come and spend some time with me, I shall enjoy your company *smiles*
You're free to use this carriage at any time. I won't always be here, of course. I'm civilized, I have a room to sleep in! But you can stretch out in here for a nap if you wish ; )
While the train is stopped at the various locations that we're going to be visiting my lounge is an ideal meet up point, also, I want to hear what everyone's been getting up to! Plus there's a nice little bar in here, so it's the perfect place for a little warmer when you come in out of the snow. This year, I've been doing some experimenting with making my own liqueurs from the fruits in my garden, I'd love to share those with you when you come back from exploring, with cold feet and running noses!
We even have a log fire in here, so we can try a bit of campfire cooking, just as long as the conductor doesn't catch us at it. I'm quite sure we'd not be meant to do anything like that, even if it was just making toast, or roasting chestnuts. But I'm game if you people are. Be sure to bring some marshmallows...
Let the good times roll!!
