Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Simon the Jester I met Renniker the other day at the club. He is a man who knows everything - from the method of trimming a puppy´s tail for a dog-show, without being disqualified, to the innermost workings of the mind of every European potentate. If I want information on any subject under heaven I ask Renniker. "Can you tell me," said I, "the most God-forsaken spot in England?" Renniker, being in a flippant mood, mentioned a fashionable watering-place on the South Coast. I pleaded the seriousness of my question. "What I want," said I, "is a place compared to which Golgotha, Aceldama, the Dead Sea, the Valley of Jehoshaphat, and the Bowery would be leafy bowers of uninterrupted delight." "Then Murglebed-on-Sea is what you´re looking for," said Renniker. "Are you going there at once?" "At once," said I. "It´s November," said he, "and a villainous November at that; so you´ll see Murglebed-on-Sea in the fine flower of its desolation." I thanked him, went home, and summoned my excellent man Rogers. "Rogers," said I, "I am going to the seaside. I hear that Murglebed is a nice quiet little spot. You will go down and inspect it for me and bring back a report."
