The Asses' Club

In the 1897 edition of A Sentimental Journey, that was purchased from a Antiquarian bookstore in York* — on the expeditions way to Coxwold — was found a clipping from a newspaper (1910?)— used as bookmark —  "Our Own Correspondent" reports on a curious dinnerparty in Paris. — The menu in itself: "Potage Cock and Bull; Saucissons de l’Ane Mort; Audouillettes de l’Abesse Dada (hobbyhorse) de l’Oncle Toby; Langue de Samsonnet; Haricots Lafleur; Bombe du Corporal Trim; fromage Sentimental; Marrons Phutatorius. As vines “Clos Yorick” and “Château du Roi de Bohème,” or, in other words, water, were served."  — made us certainly wish, that we could have been able to attend there. Instead we were in York presented for the full english breakfast — "Bless you", said the waitress while serving; fried eggs, bacon; fried sausages; fried portobello; fried tomatoes and — alas — the black sausage.
