Blast!

I am in south-west Paris. My wallet isn't. At least I still have my phone, which would be much more tedious to lose.

I've cancelled four bank cards and wonder why I habitually carry four bank cards. Will live off the company credit card until Friday.

Oh no! I hope your wallet is at home - which is annoying enough - rather than stolen.

Boy, you're fast on the trigger. I've lost my wallet about a dozen times and never cancelled anything because I was sure it'd turn up -- I'd find it eventually somewhere, figure out which store I left it at, someone on the street would find it, etc. -- and it did. I only had to cancel stuff once, when I lost it and it stayed lost for a few days.

Do you have whatever ID and tickets and whatever you need to get home, anyway? Hope so; I guess you'd have mentioned if there were a serious problem like that.

I've been thinking I should carry maybe two fewer cards myself.

Sorry to hear that, Tom. Good job you have a back-up card.

Ouch, sympathy! I hope you're ok!

Alas! Safe travels for the rest of the trip and I hope you can enjoy yourself cardlessly anyhow.

Bugger! Don't let it spoil your trip.

Sympathies.

I don't suppose you'll be remaining there awhile? I shall be moving to south-west Paris for a month as of a week from today.

No: back in England already, and only time for half an hour of touristing in the four days.

Srs bleh, but yay for still having a phone and the company credit card. Howcome that wasn't in your wallet?

I was in Paris with a colleague, and he had the credit card ...

Oh, you weren't wearing the Intrepid Solo Traveller hat, for once... :)
