bye bye book

Item lost: A book.
Where: Eurostar, London to Paris.

Paris lost property: Phone the hotline. Auto response asking to send a written letter to such and such address and that it can take 3 weeks. Go to the station. The lost property office gives me a (secret) number to call. Number called: they don't have it. Maybe London does?

London lost property: Sent an email, got a reply within 10 minutes.

(sadly they don't have it, but that is besides the point).

Paris: great croissants, but horribly insane.
