Waaah! Moment of terror, half an hour before the trip to Basel (to watch Germany play Portugal in the quarterfinals of the EURO 2008) starts: where are the tickets? They're not on the desk, or the table, or the pinboard. This rucksack is empty, so's that one, so's the attache case.. in the sports bag? Did I put them in there to show the guys after football? Nope, nothing there. Back to the desk. The piles of paper are gone through again. The stack of unread magazines and letters waiting to be filed away. It's a big, thick envelope – where could it be? Did someone steal it? Wait – that's it!
It's "safely" stored in the locked drawer. Phew!
