blamebramptonRai: Hmmm. Thwarted by Eurostar, we have booked a rather expensive ticket to Calais, only to find that the ferries may not be running and the trains from Dover to London are likely to be dire.
Brammers: So, stuck in Dover or Calais, eh?
Rai: Fie upon you, do not speak such evil. Let's book a flight.
Brammers: Is it less than 400 euros? Absolutely.
Rai: Hurrah! Yes it is! Right, we will rise at crack of dawn and return our tickets to Calais for an almost full refund, thus making the terrifying sums we have just spent on flights less awful.
Brammers: Sounds good.
Three Hours' Sleep Later
Rai: Please nice woman at ticket office, may we have our money back? Thank you!
Brammers: Should we have coffee now? Or sleep and actually enjoy it later?
Rai: Oh the latter, I think. Ah, back at St Michel. Good god, how did they get dog poo on the escalator?
Brammers: No idea, I just hope it IS dog.
Rai: What lessons have we learned today?
Brammers: People in Paris are, on the whole, quite lovely and helpful, and the Metro is a terrifying place before 9am?
Rai: Yup. Right, three more hours of sleep, let's fit you in before we need to check out.
Will our heroines be able to fly home tonight? Will Brammers make it back to the Louvre with a functional camera card? Will Rai and Pin make it through the Cluny before 4pm? Will the kindness of strangers continue to be the only think stopping the rapid onset of the screaming abdabs?
Stay tuned for the next fascinating installments!
