And so – well, so thesepeople didn't look real. But the point was that they werereal. Selina hazy was real. And that rather handsome military man in the corner was real –she had met him once, although she did not recall his name – and the Bishop (dear Robbie!) was dead.
  Miss Marple glanced at her little clock. It waseight-thirty. Time for her breakfast.
  She examined the instructions given by the hotel –Splendid big print so that it wasn'tnecessary to put one's spectacles on.
  Meals could be ordered through the telephone byasking for Room Service, or you could press the bell labelled Chambermaid.
  Miss Marple did the latter. Talking to Room Servicealways flustered her.
  The result was excellent. In no time at all therewas a tap on the door and a highly satisfactory chambermaid appeared. A real chambermaidlooking unreal, wearing a striped lavender print dress and actually a cap, a freshlylaundered cap. A smiling, rosy, positively countrified face. (Where did they find thesepeople?)
