Summary/Abstract: We got there, ordered a lot of food, heaps of it really, we sat at the table and started digging in. We were talking, can’t remember what about, it must have something about one of my unhappy affairs, ‘cause this is the usual conversation topic in Club A, and I was playing with the vinegar and oil bottles in their stand on the table, when, the reason escapes me, I simply poured a drop of vinegar in the pepper spoon and I even gave it a taste and liked it so, that I poured some more, and one of the ladies there saw me doing it and started yelling like a harpy “How dare you, sir”? She insulted us to our face, not a respectful word came out of her mouth, said that we had to pay, that we had no shame, called us hooligans and kept yelling and screaming and cursing.
