These diversions of amusement, designed to bolster flagging spirits came in no particular order. One writer after another volunteered and was never contested. Lights were turned off to conserve energy for heat. With the passage of hours even the heat began to flag and the urgency of the telling of tales increased. Bottles of wine were mysteriously uncovered from the baggage of one traveler. Consumption was shared with a pleasant effect on anxiety. The tales that were told follow in the form of Chapters, authors unknown and unrecorded. Natalie recorded the tales in a short-hand she had learned in early work as a corporate secretary. Pity the author's names were not recorded as well, not even their sex. One can only guess.
