Harold Hare

I still remember the excitement when my Harold Hare comic dropped through the letterbox on a Wednesday evening - just before choir practice.

I still have a copy of the annual.

Felt the same excitement today when I discovered on the doormat the latest issue of the SNCF magazine.

Full of things French. The back cover is a photo of Calais in 1938 where the locomotive is making its way, backwards, from the shed to the maritime station.
