I have only just heard about Madrid on Radio 4 this morning, and this news is already 24 hours old.

Yesterday I got up at 4am and went to see a couple of friends in Paris. Flew over. Some idiot in the Charles de Gaulle Airport immigration queue was making some sarcastic comment about expecting bombs in Paris railway stations, and I had no idea what had made him say that.

Got the RER train into Paris, stayed the afternoon, despite feeling ill all day. I couldn't eat, so all I had yesterday was a chamomile tea on the Champs-Élysées. Around 7.30pm I took the same train back to CDG, flew back to Heathrow, drove home in a snowstorm and went straight to bed, still feeling rather unwell.

All in complete ignorance of what had happened in Madrid. Now I feel even worse.
