Watson's gone.
To be more precise, we've gone from Watson. From the dog track, hitched a ride in another cab and spent the next few hours navigating around to London's more touristy locationsthe London Eye, Piccadilly Circus, and the Barbican.

All "Typos" in this story are intentional in order to showcase the work as close to
its original form as possible. This story was written when I was 7 years old.
Also, the dialogue is not separated into paragraphs, as it was not written in such a

Also, the name Stephine was written to be pronouncèd (Ste-fuh-nee).
