A nostalgic offering to share between generations and a real collector's item that makes a delightful present for new babies who are sure to grow up to be firm Thomas fans. Children aged 3 and up will love beloved characters such as Percy, James, Gordon, and Toby who live on The Fat Controller's railway. Thomas has been teaching children lessons about life and friendship for over 75 years. He ranks alongside other beloved characters such as Paddington Bear, Winnie-the-Pooh and Peter Rabbit as an essential part of our literary heritage. It all began as a story made up by the Reverand W. Awdry to entertain his son when he had measles. Now millions of people across the world have grown up with the tales of Sodor Island, enchanted by the adventures of Thomas and his friends, Percy, Gordon, and Toby, and all the other engines that work on the Fat Controller's railway. Have you met them all?

Now's the time to get on board!
The year was 1997. Some of you may not have even been born yet, while some of us were doing everything in our power to keep our Tamagotchis alive, hoping they wouldn't soil themselves to death between classes. The Spice Girls were on the news more often than Eskom, and life was pretty good.
Then there was James Cameron's masterpiece, Titanic - Leo became the heartthrob of millions, and Celine Dion CDs cleared the shelves (kids, you can ask the folks what a CD is.)
But something else happened: suddenly everyone wanted to board a cruise ship - whether to reenact the famous 'Jack, I'm flying!' scene, or get drawn like one of his French girls.
A LOT has changed in 25 years, but the fact remains: Leo is still a heartthrob and people still want to go on cruises. Now's your chance, with our main deal of a 4-night cruise for 2 on the luxurious Sinfonia! There may not have been room for Jack on that dang floating door, but there would definitely be room in one of these suites!
