Tea and sympathy

Grand hotels
Hotels with history
Plush carpets
Regal service
Fit for Rani Jilliana

The days of The Raj
The days of The Silk Route
Days of heat and dust
Far away exotic places
The Golden Age of Travel

Le 5 o'clock
The magic hour
A quartet playing
Golden Oldies

Grand hotels
London
Paris
New York
Rome
Belgrade
Vienna
Istanbul
Athens
Madeira
Jaipur
Singapore

Tea time
Cakes and pastries
Clatter and chatter
Tea and sympathy
