Looking for the possible

Craft and Origami

My search for what might be possible started in earnest after I bought my European Road Atlas and got mediaeval on its ass.

Twenty-plus pages came out and a couple of hours with a glue stick, application of tape and careful alignments gave me a campaign map worthy of my first technical adviser: Captain Bernie Winters (more on his contribution later). His military bearing visibly stiffened when he saw it.

I stapled it to my office wall in direct violation of The Man and there it calls to me. It mainly says,  “I am huge”. France is typically unhelpful in its vastness and ability to get in the way of Italy. If it was known for getting in the way of other countries e.g. Germany then I could be more forgiving.

My fortitude was bolstered when I found a box of fat headed map pins and the first went straight in to mark Calais. Specifically the Eurotunnel exit: the sphincter of Britain.

This also gave me the physical evidence required to make real the booking: outward train on the 4th April 2017.

Look out France, here I come.
