A sudden Invitation from an old family friend, to attend his daughter's wedding in The Hebrides, Scotland, means Zephyrinus takes The Night Train from London Euston to Stornaway, Scotland,
on The Caledonian Sleeper. Of course, Perkins gets the week off and goes fishing.

"Down at the Station
ReplyDeleteEarly in the Morning
See all the puffer Trains
Standing in a Row
Along comes the Guard
Blows his little Whistle
Phee, phee, WOO...WOO!
Off Zephyrinus Goes"
Thank you, John.
ReplyDeleteAs always, your most interesting Comments are always looked forward to.

"Och, aye, the noo,
From you, I knew,
a witty old rhyme,
Would come, IT'S TRUE !!!"
"All aboard. Stornaway the next stop.
Dinner is being served in The Pullman Car".
There was a young chap named Zephyrinus,
DeleteWho preferred a steam-train to the omnibus.
Declining the car:
Finding Stornoway to far
He chose the night train: good grub and less fuss.
John. I'm going to nominate you for the Poet Lorry Eight Award.
