The postman has just been. I have just received a letter from you, which included a typed note, plus 4 envelopes. Your typed note says:

Mystery Trail,

So well done you for agreeing to play along.

You will find a series of envelopes marked with numbers. It’s important that you open them in sequence and only when instructed,

The trail will not take you too far, however; you will be outside in the most part so I suggest you dress appropriately.

Okay to kick off, gather up the envelopes drop them into your rucksack and head for Chippenham train station. You should be looking to catch the 3.10pm train to Bath. (You can go a little earlier; but try to hold off as best you can!) I suggest you park on the road near the entrance of WRSL as opposed to the train station car park – trust me. Just to re-assure you though, this does not involve staying away overnight.

Only upon arrival at Bath Spa may you open envelope number 1.

I would really welcome updates by means of text messaging along the way.

How bizarre is this? I feel strangely excited. In the 8 years I have known you, in the 4 years of marriage you have never done anything like this before.

Should I play along?
