    Summary

    So, in essence - it has been three days in Denmark, he lost a bag on the way here, his spare glasses were broken by an unforgiving bout of turbulence, and the smug face of a respected colleague made him lash out and end his own career.

    Ergo, in conclusion, he has argued - there’s nothing to do but get drunk in this sticky woody bar.

    The clink of a glass being set down in front of him, and the bartender says, “From the lady at the corner booth.” He twists on his stool, almost falls, and swivels his eyes to the booths.

    A woman on her own who raises her glass to him in the warm light.

    Christ. It could be the beer talking, but she’s gorgeous.
