I really did intend posting something a bit more literary today but then it's not every day that you meet Thomas the Tank Engine, who seems to have come off the rails and is ferrying children to see Santa at the Flower Market.
But I did read lots of Thomas books, based on the original stories by Reverend Wilbert Awdry, to my son when he was little.

Oh you were lucky -- wanted to take my 4 yr old grandson but we missed the California date, and he will soon outgrow Thomas... Lovely photo!
