"It's a pity we don't have Bert and Cec with us. They'd do nicely to establish the in-room dining service, and give us a fine view into the rooms." Phryne supposed she could do it herself, but even her acting skills might be stretched in doing service work for more than a few days.
She resumed drinking her cocoa while pursuing that train of thought and then finally gave a small shrug. "We'll have to be on the look out for a nice young man or two that we can trust to do errands, if we're here more than a few days. I trust you'll let me know if you meet any likely candidates."
The type of young men Phryne herself tended to meet would be more suited to boudoir espionage, she suspected. That was not without its uses, but she'd just as soon do most of that herself.
