I consider my good offices suitably commended.
Even I will concede it certainly looks a bit classier than the Taj in Chunking Mansions; but at least there I have a VIP Membership Card...

Place started going downhill when they allowed women into the bars, of course, but fortunately, I'd emigrated by then. Also, the Armoury is to be converted into a "business centre", which will no doubt cause many a deceased member to begin their grave-ly revolutions. Bah.
