Zed tried a different mode of transport

Zed says he prefers the 75 (here in the background) because it takes less effort and is more comfortable.

Zed doesn’t look impressed.

Zed had a very exciting day. In fact he was so excited about the prospect of a train ride that he fell over while I was taking this picture.

Here is Zed on the train with his ticket.

... and sitting comfortably in his seat

At one of the stations there was a model train layout that Zed thought was very good, although the trains seemed to go round in circles without actually stopping anywhere.

If you still haven't worked out where Zed is, this picture tells you.

And here's the engine changing ends at the terminus

Zed wasn't quite so impressed with this diesel train on the other track, although it was still 'vintage'.

and finally, back at the station where we had set out from... a very nice day out

I’ve been on that railway a few times over the years.

At least Zed is getting out and about. Working off that winter fat.

Here is Zed playing a game of Scrabble.
He is not sure how many points this is this worth.

Zed is still enjoying himself here in Essex.
The weather has been very hot, although it is cooler and raining just now.
Anyway, today a parcel arrived and Zed is very interested to find out what's in it. I will help him to open it and let you know later on:

Good to see the wee fellow is still enjoying himself. No doubt when you unbox the item he will want you to build him a fort or a Rover 75.

Just a glimpse. More tomorrow.

Revealed...

Zed hasn't decided where it should go on the wall yet.

Zed decided that the wall art would look good here, so it is now installed.
Zed even managed to photobomb the picture by sneaking in via the mirror.
