Calum the Caterpillar.

Calum had always wanted to be like his big cousin, Thomas the Tank, but he could never get his tracks to fit on the railway lines. 
He tried running away to sea when he was younger, but just got that sinking feeling, so he resigned himself to a life by the sea, instead of on it, and kept himself busy hauling boats in and out of the water.
Poor Calum is in need of some tlc ;) If only he could find the girl of his dreams!

Thanks to SkiMe for setting us a real challenge for Mono Monday, and apologies for the nonsense story :)

Thanks everyone for all the hearts you've given me recently - two blips on the front page of the favourites - I am surprised and delighted x
