Awaydays Blog Post 32: So Near - Yet So Far

Our flight arrived in Paris 30 minutes early, and we got to the train on time. Unfortunately, due to a suspected bomb on the line at Marne le Vallée we're sitting on a train going nowhere. Latest advice is that the bomb squad will be attending in half an hour, which means our train will be at least two hours late.

People are not yet complaining out loud, but the train is overly warm for my liking.

A couple of years ago Nick was delayed at East Midlands due to a bomb scare. It turned out to be an unattended cabin bag, some idiot had forgotten to collect it from the security area. A whole load of aggravation for nothing.

Jean: Same with this -- it was a forgotten parcel.
