Euston Station London ……… I am sitting on board a Virgin Train about to pull away from the platform ……. I can remember being here as a youth ….. turning up for demonstrations in Hyde Park …….. coming up to London as a student ……. This station has changed but it hasn’t changed that much …….. I can see myself staring up at those old school arrival and departure boards ……… I was awed by the possibility of all those places …….. the giant travel hub of possible destinations that Euston represented …….. All those Northern cities……… I guess its me thats changed…….. it seems kind of small now ……. back then it was giant and full of possibilities …….. all those amazing destinations on the boards ……. Now I can picture them all …… I have been to them all …….. yesterday I was in Dubai looking up at the screens ……. that seems to be a massive hub with all those Emirates planes flying all over the world ……. calling flights to Tehran and Sao Paulo ……. thats a travel hub that can still kind of awe me ……….. Mind you …… Euston station still deserves a little more respect and awe than I am managing this morning ………. I preferred the youthful me’s response to this place…………

Talking of generating a little awe …….. Here above is a picture of some of the awesome beautiful giant beasts of South Africa …….. Elephants ... they really are properly awesome in an absolutely correct use of a rather over used word …….. and just in case I might have been thinking of getting a little casual about their complete awesomeness ……. A totally giant one chased me down a mountain road ……. me and max and my rental Mercedes were forced to do a little of that 40 mph mega fast backwards driving down a bumpy unmade mountain track that we all love …….. now that massive Bull elephant was so totally awesome and magnificent and full-on aggressive that there was simply no time to photograph and reverse at top speed ….. so here is a female (with just a hint of her calf her calf) ...... being interested and awesome……. but luckily not as aggressively hostile as that giant male ……. :-))))))) XXXXXX

Happy New Year !!!!! ……… have a completely awesome year in 2015 :-))))))))))))))))))) …….. hehehehehe……… :-))))))) XXXXXXXXXXXX
