The London Book Fair

Day 1

Travelling:



Oh my! The trouble started as I got to the station. "Don’t go" I hear a strange man shouting at me. I turned round to find that the trains where not running normally.

Luckily my father had not driven off and took me to another station to start my journey.

It was a peaceful train ride with 18 stops and full people of every nationality world wide.
