Awakened

We're off to Berlin for a few nights. Here's Mrs Tim's thoughts on sleeping in a hotel bedroom.

"How many hundreds and thousands of people have awakened in this room; awakened to their sorrows and joys, their hopes and their fears? Strange that I should have slept so well, untroubled by the haunting of their thoughts!" D.E.Stevenson Mrs Tim and the regiment

Some day dream bedrooms to dream of lazing in...

  1. Ooh enjoy Berlin! I haven't been there for years and it seems to have become something from an Isherwood story in my mind.

  2. Thank you. I loved Cabaret as a teenager and so strange to be finally going to Berlin for the first time. Not sure my suitcase will be Sally Bowles-like...

  5. Have a great time Rachel. I loved Mrs Tim when I read it a few years ago - she's so ENGLISH and so sensible and so wryly funny. I must read it again.
