Please make sure you take plenty of photos
of you riding on one of those miniature steam trains. Also, marvelling at a traction engine.
Is this with the ex? Please say yes.

Whatever, love.
Send your regards from the real ale tent, will you?
BTW: Look out for the guy with the dungarees. He'll be pretty old. That'll be the guy driving the miniature train. Flirt with him and he'll probably let you drive it!

That sounds like fun
I went to a steam fair a few weeks ago. My brother in law is really into steam engines. Personally I'm happy to look at a steam engine for a while, but then I like to go and get an ice cream.

You're missing out, lad.
There's a whole world of fizzy sweets out there. Watermelon. Strawberry bricks. Cola bottles.

You could combine the two in to a confectionary masterpiece.
Just add a flake and BINGO.

Well, these old traction engines do have quite strong vibrations in the seats.
