"In his room at the Inter-Continental Hotel, at the northern end of Helsinki's broad arterial Mannerheimintie, Bond tapped out the telephone number. It rang twice and a girl answered in Finnish.
Bond spoke in respectful English. - Paula Vacker, please.
Bond said he was at the Inter-Continental.
- Here? Here in Helsinki?' She did not bother to disguise her pleasure.
- Yes,' Bond confirmed, - here in Helsinki. Unless Finnair got it wrong.
- Finnair are like homing pigeons', she said with a laugh."
