“Back in his flat, he found that May had already laundered and pressed his clothes from Italy. It was tea-time, but she knew better than to bother him with that old ladies’ brew. Instead, she knocked at his bedroom door with a silver tray on which sat a soda syphon, a bucket of ice, a cut-glass tumbler and a full bottle of Johnnie Walker Black Label.

“For your health’s sake, Mr. Bond,” she said, placing it on top of the chest of drawers. “Here, let me pack those for you.”

Bond had not quite completed three months on the wagon, but if in M’s eyes he was fit to return to work, then… He poured a conservative two fingers of whisky into the glass, added a lump of ice and the same amount of soda.

“Your good health,” he said, then tossed the whole lot down in a single gulp.”
