If you're planning a trip to Paris in the next few days and find yourself on the gorgeous new concourse at St Pancras station, keep an eye out for some seemingly odd behaviour. You might notice people counting their steps, or making strange and random phone calls near the statue of Sir John Betjeman or otherwise looking baffled.
Please, don't be tempted to call the authorities if you see any of this, for it is likely that these individuals are playing along with our newest project, We Tell Stories. Part game, part exercise in digital storytelling, this launched this with Charles Cumming's thrilling Google Maps adventure. A new story, by Toby Litt, will go live next Tuesday and, I can assure you, this will be something completely different. And if you look at the site and still can't work out why people are wandering round St Pancras, then perhaps you are not looking hard enough...

Great minds, as they say, think alike. I had no idea you'd written this post. Batta bing, eh?
This sounds like exactly what I needed two years ago when a teacher asked me "My guys are crazy about Captain Underpants, but they've read them all. What else is there like that?"Thanks for the review.
