Oh I am so happy, Gail and I are heading south on the train, destination Human Granny and Grandad!
Making good progress, we are crossing the Forth Bridge already...
Stopping for a pee break in Edinburgh is all very well, but really I want to see HGD and not hang around admiring the view from Calton Hill.
Yes and the crocuses in Princes Street Gardens are a welcome sign of Spring, but let's not miss the next train...
Ah, Torness nuclear power station. So we are headed in the right direction...
And that looks like Berwick-upon-Tweed. Hooray, we have made it into England! No passports required. Yet.
Now we are on the outskirts of Newcastle. I wonder why Gail has grabbed my collar so tightly...
So continuing southwards, Gail is saying "look Bertie, Durham Cathedral. One of our finest"...
Well granted it is a splendid building, but really, can we get this train moving again? I just want to see HGD...
Coming in to York now. Yes, I know Gail, another fine Minster hiding behind the trees. And not much further to go...
Oh yes, a treat is just what I need to make the landscape around Doncaster more palatable...
Woo hoo! We have finally arrived in Nottingham. I am so thrilled to see Human Granny. But where is HGD? Oh I forgot, he is in his special new home. What do you mean we can't visit until tomorrow? I'm going to look for him right now...
