Back in ‘sunny’ Leiden
Sooo, I’m back to Leiden. Finally. I took the Eurostar at 08:39 from Waterloo station, arrived at Brussels Midi slightly late at 12:15, queued for 20 minutes to get the first Intercity train to The Hague which was at 12:37 (yes, that was kind of last minute), arrived at The Hague at somewhere around 14:50 and connected to Leiden at 15:05.
When I arrived at the hotel, I found that I have certainly left my mobile phone at the Russel Hotel in London… dooh ! I tried to call on it, but it was not even ringing, I tried to call the hotel but was somewhat put on hold (in short no-one was answering) for more than 5 minutes, I dropped an email and more than 12h I still don’t have any sort of reply. That is lovely.
I needed to ditch the mobile phone anyway as it was 3 year-old and the keypad was somewhat no more visible, it was not working in the US and I had all sort of trouble using it internationally. It annoys me a bit as I had a bunch of numbers that I did not copied anywhere else (as usual)..but oh well…I guess I will get a new one in Leiden.
