"At five in the afternoon Swiss time company's aircraft taxied and stopped at the Bern International Airport, in front of the main terminal. Bond walked quickly to the building.

Entry to the country was effective as always, and he arrived in the entry hall, carrying a strong pig leather suit bag on his shoulder and looked quickly the signs carried by drivers seeking his name. 

M had given him the name of a contact person. - Freddie von Grüsse. I have never met the guy, but he is a "von", so probably he is unbearable pain in the ass. You know,what kind of people Swiss cream are, James.

None of the drivers raised Bond-sign, so he went ahead arrivals hall and was approaching the information desk, when the deep, pleasant female voice whispered in his ear. - James Bond?"
