It has been a while, and he was certainly not at the forefront of my mind while we were having the auctions, but now Flat Richie has resurfaced. In fact, he has already arrived at the destination *after* the one I am reporting today.
Flat Richie was in Zagreb. Since Andrea posted extensively about it on tumblr, I’ll let her speak 😉 rather than summarise everything. She has illustrated her report with lots of lovely images. Have a look yourself, and if you can, give her a shout on tumblr 😉
Wait, there’s more!
Sorry for the long display – that’s tumblr’s settings. But at least you are now up to speed. It looks as if Flat Richie had a real holiday in Zagreb – with proper sightseeing and all. So many great photos, too, with the RAPS in situ and on location. Fantastic. Many thanks for hosting Flat Richie, Andrea. I hope you’ll have lots of fun with your chosen items 😊. And yum, I’d like a pizza and some beer right now, too 🍻. (Sorry for the missing A and E… once Flat Richie is back here, I’ll replace them!) And I loved the look at your fan collection in your house. That looks like some proper collectibles! 👍🏻
Oh, and lastly – I have already had word that Flat Richie has safely arrived at his next destination. Fabulous. We’ll soon hear from his next stop!
This where we are at now:
Thank you for putting up with me and tumblr settings XD :*

Fab fun account Andrea, thank you (and I’m intrigued by the Tolkein pub). FR had been on the road a long time, it must be 9 months! Incredible.

It’s been a while. I was his first stop and he arrived at my place on 29 November 2018.
That makes his journey time 280 days or 40 weeks or 9 months and 7 days. Wow!

Armidreamer – Thank you. There will be more pics of Zagreb, including about these two Tolkien pubs (one owner, two pubs), so you can see interiors. 😉

Thank you Andrea, that would be great. I nearly went to Zagreb in the summer but couldn’t make it work with my travels but hopefully next year.
