The Art of being an English Gentlemen (Part 4)

Up early, out late, Stout brogues, fine mohair number, appropriate shirt and foppish tie. Stroll through the woods. Catch a tube into town. Visit publishers, express surprise at lack of activity. Get taken for a long luxurious lunch down by the Thames. Demolish half a crate. Punch publisher. Walk off to Tate Gallery. Dance around the Rothko room. Declaim tragic verse from the top of the steps outside. Convince effervescent young thing to follow to the ends of the earth. Stop off in the White Swan on the way. Head into soho a couple of crispy whites later. Send effervescent young thing home exhausted but in rapture in the taxi. Lean against bar, brush away stray blonde hair, catch the eye of the barmaid. Take deep breath order a glass of something noisy and vow to get some sleep tomorrow...
