Ten minutes to eleven
To some cars the feat would have been nothing . Whether it was within the reach of Ping and Pong remained to be seen ... . As we left Orthez , I looked at my watch . Ten minutes to eleven . I laid hold of the wheel ... . To this hour I can not tell why Daphne did not exercise the prerogative of a passenger and protest against the pace . But neither at the time or thereafter did she so much as mention it .
