Engels New Year 1888/9
When New Year came the air was as thick as pea soup. No chance of getting away, our cabman ordered for one o’clock never arrived so the whole lot of us had to stop where they were. So we went on drinking, singing and card playing till half past five..it was after seven when we went to sleep and got up again at 12 or 1 to return to Pilsener etc.. I stuck to Claret till seven
