The bag was the third thing Brenda Liddell had pulled open that morning, and the only one with a sandwich in it. Gerald Pimm, ten, stood on the far side of the steel counter at Harwick crossing with his glasses pushed up his nose and a paper ticket clamped in both fists, watching her hands as if they might steal something.

'Anything to declare?' she asked. He considered this seriously. 'My mom says I'm not to declare things to strangers.' He pulled a folded envelope from under his cap and laid it flat. It was addressed in purple felt pen to the Officer in Charge, and inside, in the same looping hand, was a list: one cheese sandwich, one spare pair of socks, one roll of mint imperials, and a final note that read, in full, Gerald is not to accept sweets from anyone with a moustache.

Brenda read it twice. Behind her the lorries idled and a gull on the railings made a noise like a rusty gate. She had a moustache herself, a small neat one she was not sensitive about, and she decided the list was fair. She checked the socks, which were clean, confiscated the imperials, and wrote everything on the form in block capitals.

When she handed the envelope back, she took her stamp from the drawer and pressed it firmly across the top of the letter. ADMITTED, it said, in purple ink to match. Gerald read it aloud slowly, the way people read something they plan to show someone at home. Then he tucked it back under his cap and trotted off towards the platform, already counting the minutes until his mom could be told.
