Re: The Journey
Where I run back across to the westbound platform. I board an Acton Town train and start to feel unwell after sitting down. I then realise that all of this has been a dream and I re-awake from this as you. As it turns out, you'd been reading a book about tube challenging when you had fell asleep. Once you're fully awake you realise you are at a place very far from home, you're laying...

Re: The Journey
where you buy a large pot. You then head back to the airport, where you incapacitate the police that have come to arrest you for stealing an A330 by hitting them with the pot, and board a commercial flight to Accra once more.

Re: The Journey
You somehow manage to board a private jet to RAF Benson. The secret location in which you were hiding, a small baggage compartment. To compensate for the pot you lost while fleeing the police, Richard Hammond bought you a locally decorated armchair and 4kg of cabbage. Both of which you must somehow carry for the next 10 legs of The Journey no matter what...

Re: The Journey
You immediately eat all the cabbage. Half the job done!
You board the 139 bus to Henley-on-Thames, and put the armchair at the back.

Re: The Journey
You catch the shuttle train service to Twyford. You sprint over the footbridge with the armchair to catch the westbound train to Reading but just miss it. You then decide you need a rest as the next one is one hour away. So, you exit the station and walk east for two minutes before arriving at The Golden Cross pub. You grab a nice little table all for yourself and sit in your armchair bought by Richard Hammond with a pint of Stowford Press cider

Re: The Journey
However you realise that you've gone in the wrong direction. You cross over and head west again, departing the train at Reading. You are so taken back by the new modern station, and the pouring rain, that you, and your armchair, board a waiting Voyager service express to Banbury

Re: The Journey
You then get a train to South Ruislip and camp overnight, with the armchair, in preparation to ride the 10:57 parliament Chiltern Railways service direct into London Paddington from South Ruislip
