In lying naked on my bed in a cheap Paris hotel room. It’s a warm night & there is no aircon so I’ve got the window open. This opens onto a central well with a little yard at the bottom. It works as a very good sound amplifier, I’ve been able to hear my mother & sister talking 3 floors above me. Tonight someone is snoring loudly (even by YACF standards), the amplified effect is like something from an Attenborough documentary, a herd of Walrus or something. You know it’s a good hotel when they provide packets of earplugs in the bathroom.....
