we had too much time, too much us

Today keeps reminding me of a Sunday because I went to work today.

I think I keep thinkingh negatively, so I thought it was going to be horrible today, but it was

alright. Considering there was only five of us, a lot of little kids trying to find bears and numerous compliments.

Hang on, let me explain.

I work, here.

today's low down for you:

Wednesday 29th July 2009 - Steam with Colin

Steam hauled passenger train and a second diesel train running. All main attractions open.

Colin, the Railway's own bear, will be in attendance and creating mischief. Take part in Colin's Treasure Hunt.

Entrance Price: Adults £7, Seniors £6, Child £4 or Family £22 (2 Adults & up to 4 Children) - Child entry half price if bringinng their own bear to see Colin.

Opening Times 10.30 - 17.00 (last train 16.00)

Colin is the railway bear. he's a little toy that someone left at the railway once, and has been a mascot of sorts ever since. Over the past few months, I've been working on the illustrations for a book about him, that went on sale today.

Yeah, I made that front cover. ;)

Jealous?

so yeah, I've illustrated three stories in that book, and they've created this little world for Colin and his friends. I'm proud of it, but I doubt it's going to get anywhere. Only freelance artists are used for book illustration and I want a stable job in the future, not something that'll only arise on occassion.

might be something, though :)
