Good morning & welcome to Roast Dinner Day
A quiet Sunday morning is a chance to choose the mindset you’ll carry into the days ahead
Choose something that supports you
Let this morning be a soft reminder that you are allowed to rebuild yourself as often as you need

While waiting for our connecting train in Norwich we took a look at the track alongside platforms 6,5 and 4. It looked like it had not been touched since the age of steam. Definitely undulating in places and very little ballast.

The Dutch Royal Coach. Nice comfortable seats. 😃
The AA-81, a DAF, entered service in 1991 and served the royal family for fifteen years, transporting them to important occasions. The bus was donated to the DAF Museum in Eindhoven in 2007.
