After a few days catching up with friends it was now time to take the last of the train journeys on my travels - the North line.Many a hostel served me well across the world and it seemed apt that whilst I tucked into shortbread the other passenger at my table should represent the Scottish Youth Hostel Association. Chris originally from Durham told me the story how back in his day there was a stigma of taking holidays never mind travelling. Chris knew that as a young lad were he tell his parents he was about to go off on a massive cycling trip across the Pyrenees they would talk him out of it in a matter of days. So.........Chris told them he was off on holiday for a fortnight....he arrived home eight months later!
