We very snootily took the Orient Express from Vienna to Paris to catch the Chunnel train back to London. Our snootiness was wasted, because it was one of the dismal French overnight trains — hot, with narrow bunks. I was still coughing, so I sat up sucking lozenges all night so that our German compartment-mates could sleep. Fortunately, no one was murdered, including the cougher.
