Emily was looking forward to her stay in the country. The Professor’s elder sister Wiebke had come over at eight o’clock in the morning on Saturday to look after Nanny who despite her eighty years was beginning to recover really well from broncho pneumonia. She was still weak but the Professor deemed her well enough to allow her nurse a weekend off and his mother had been badgering him for weeks now to send Emily over for a short visit.<br />Just as Emily was explaining Nanny’s medication, diet and gentle exercises to the Professor’s sister there was a loud crash to be heard from the hall below and a loud anguished shout. Emily made for the stairs in a flash leaving Wiebke with Nanny. As she reached the last turn of the stairs she could see Professor van Kampen bent over Wim’s prostrate form.<br />'Ah, Nurse Hart, it seems Wim has sprained his ankle. I shall take him to hospital for x-rays to make sure there are no bones broken. I’m afraid your departure will have to be postponed for a couple of hours. I cannot drive you to my mother’s myself as I am expected at the hospital for a meeting of the board of governors, later today. But I will call a friend of mine, <a href="https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=3552039177027&set=a.1179100815051.19670.1754074160&type=1&theater" rel="nofollow">Marcus</a> Mathijssen, to send over one of his <a href="http://www.taxi-schiphol-amsterdam.com/site/core/images/img1.jpg" rel="nofollow">chauffeurs</a>.

Bentleys swoop silently around corners, past articulated lorries, and down hills into the village. Swooping. I love it!<br /><br />Thanks for another encounter.
