>The above is from a Stephen Leacock short story called "Gertrude the

>"four".

So I've got a fallible memory. . .

Isn't that the same story that starts "It was a dark and stormy night on the
west end of London. Fortunately, our story takes place on the east coast
of Kent, where it was a warm and cheeful night", or something very close to
that?

(I have _got_ to reread him. Right after all those other books I have got to
reread.)

By the way, to haul this whole thread back into shouting distance of the
list. . . In the Bertie-and-Jeeves stories, Bertie's aunt's husband has an
excellent French chef. Some of his creations are mentioned in the stories.
Has anyone ever actually tried to come up with those creations?
