Glad to see that at least I've had a trip to Switzerland this year! Nearly 9 years since I was last there before that. Very Happy

Makes up for the fact you spend most of the time stuffed in my coat pocket nowadays... Cool

Same problem for Carol here, although she's gone AWOL in the house. Must remember to hunt her down later.

A disturbing thought if ever there was one.

Well, as you don't have a valid ticket or (as a wee hamster) the ability to purchase one, I have to smuggle you on the train somehow!

Thank you dogboxdriver - I can vaguely remember my human days when purchasing tickets was a much simpler affair. Alas, a coat pocket it shall have to be from now on.... Laughing

PS - where am I at the moment? Do you still have me or have I been deported to some other corner of the UK?

As I type this you are downstairs, stuffed in the pocket of my unique EMT hi-vis driver's coat, either nibbling on the lining (because the pocket has fallen apart even before it became a hamster residence) or getting your head down.

I'm not quite sure how you can both be in my coat pocket and typing messages on this 'ere forum at the same time, but that must be one of those great imponderables of life.

Are you a Schrodinger's Hamster, perhaps?

Ha, ha, ha! Scrodingers hamster! What an appropriate comment considering my masters degree is in quantum physics, which I shall finally be finished in just under 3 months. You have no idea how much I laughed when I read that Laughing
