A failed rail journey to Northfield (Rousse)
The young woman and I left the Chil gig and walked to the small railway station. Our journey home should have been straightforward, but we missed one train because we weren’t paying attention to the platform announcements, another because we … Continue reading

Horsepower (Rousse)
I clung onto the roof of the train carriage until I could bear the cold no longer, then embarked on the dangerous descent. It was difficult to drop to the road while the train was travelling at speed. Who knew … Continue reading

Kidnap victims escape captor by first class rail (Rousse)
BR and I were being held hostage by a crazy gunman who thought it hysterical to ‘tease’ us by holding a gun to our heads. Even funnier, in his warped mind, was to hand the deadly weapon over to each … Continue reading

Thieving pair steal BMW and wads of cash (Rousse)

Recycled train carriages make for a bumpy ride (Rousse)
LK and I were charged with drawing a solar system of planets to represent the different sizes of the groups of actors covered in our research. JS would come along later to check our work. It was a tricky job … Continue reading
