Up to snuff

To Cellar Door , a chic little former public convenience at the bottom of the Aldwych, last night for cocktails and chat with the Coal Man, the Hack and Tai Chi Boy.

We were having a fab old time. Then Tai Chi Boy left and I think this must have destabilised the flow of the collective (or something) because someone spotted that five kinds of snuff were available on the menu.

Snuff? Had we been flung back in time to 1890? No. Although that would have been quite cool.

It's just that with cigarettes a no-no people still need their vices, and snuff remains probably the only legal stimulant you can whack up your nozzer. I learnt all about 'nature's snuff box' from the Coal Man who is evidently a bit of a dab hand.

Anyway - I'm recommending the club blend. Very minty... Get in quick before it gets banned.
