History

" Politicians escaping their fresh-built corridors of small connivance and enormous words lounged in the alcoves of Muthaiga..... lion, elephant, buffalo, kudu - some dead a day, some dead for years - were revived again and shot again in corpses of Wedgwood saucers, behind hillocks of table linen, or in jungles of swizzle sticks."

Lord Deedes, The daily Telegraph, March 13th 2000
