How rude!

Rumor has it that good old P. was sorely slighted by the stout guardians of a certain hob-nobby Manhattan establishment.
While we quite understand that even the modern gentleman must make some compromises when venturing into the colonies, let this teach us humility in the face of adversity. Naturally a chap must represent himself with all the character &al. he can muster, but never, never head into the urban verve & swerve without the valet and the garderobe! After all, merely a quick pop in the back of the limousine and the eagle eye of the trusty jeeves would have seen P. safely through the gauntlet of Kerberos... es. Kerberosi. Or is it Kerberi? These formidable but regrettably untoward gentlemen, as it were.

Indeed, I would also like to point out the Boy Scouts' time-tested motto, 'Always Prepared!' While it is noble to help olde ladies across the lane, it also pays for the gentleman to be prepared for himself and un-expected social situations! Therefore I dare suggest we all shall carry a hair-comb and some moustache-polish with us at all times (or, rather, have Jeeves carry it for you, and have it handy). Once again, I must colour meself humbled but ultimately the better for the experience!
Ever upward &c.
