Just checking

The whole point of staying overnight near Euston Station was that the
Gorse Fox could have a good night's sleep and did not need to get up
in the middle of the night to find his way to Birmingham. It was
therefore a most unwelcome moment when, at 4 o'clock this morning the
hotel fire alarm went off. Only for about 30 seconds but it was loud
enough that corpses in the local cemetary sat up. Settling back down
the Gorse Fox drifted back towards a gentle slumber. The alarm went
off once more. Only about 10 seconds this time... but the damage was
done. Gorse Fox was awake... and that's how it has stayed.
