.....that I am taking Dave home to Norwich. I am as nervous and apprehensive as anything.
I am getting a later train so it will hopefully be quieter and no commuters from London. (It's the London Liverpool Street train)
Also, I thought of sitting on the floor in the space between the coaches with Dave next to me. That may be better with his carrier covered.
Please send good vibes for us. I need them.
Grace xx

Good luck from E&G. Rescue remedy is brilliant ..... Few drops on top of Denver's head between his ears might help to keep him calm. Helen, Some drops on your tongue wouldn't hurt you either. I use Rescue Remedy most days for Georgie and for me when I'm stressed at work.
Safe journey!

Best wishes for the journey. If you have the type of carrier with door on the end, wrap a luggage strap around the carrier to hold it together and keep the door from popping open.

Excited for you - especially since I'm only in Lowestoft so feel an element of East Anglian camaraderie!!!!
Fingers & paws crossed for a good trip x

Good luck!
I remember when you could send animals by Red Star on trains. I sent a friend's cat to him in Newcastle - seems a crazy idea now
PS - My Granddad was steam train driver from Liverpool St to Norfolk

I think it was Helen
Much younger than I remember him as being, but recognizable by the roll-up he always had hanging out of his mouth
