Writing on trains

Although a number of the pieces on this blog were researched and drafted before leaving London, many were written or edited during the five days of travelling around on trains. At hotels, all of which had wireless internet, I was able to post using a Kindle, although its 'experimental browser' meant that these were written in HTML rather than 'compose' mode. The X2 542 train from Copenhagen to Stockholm also had free wireless, and the five-hour journey could be spent working on this blog. The majority of the actual writing was done initially by hand - on whatever came to hand, which meant tickets and schedules and maps.
