Winston Churchill's Breakfast Menu Up For Sale
The menu clearly states that Churchill loved a "hearty breakfast" of course with whisky and a cigar.
Churchill once while aboard the BOAC flight in June 1954 wrote out his own menu finding the breakfast uninteresting in he plane.
His menu was inclusive of egg, toast, jam, butter, coffee and milk, a jug of cold milk, cold chicken, and meat. There was also the mention of grapefruit, sugar bowl, a glass orange squash (ice), with some whisky soda to wash down, along with a cigar.
Churchhill's menu which is expected to fetch 1,500 pounds was preserved by the air steward, and has been put for sale along with press cuttings from the trip.
"Richard Westwood-Brookes, the seller's words were quoted in 'The Telegraph' thus : "This is one of the most remarkable pieces of Churchill memorabilia we have seen,"
"It shows what a hearty breakfast he ate and it was all washed down with a whisky, after which he smoked a cigar.
"It is the type of indulgence we''ve come to associate with Churchill and it reassuring to know he ate so well in his 80th year."
"There are some smudges and ink stains but it is a wonderful piece of history," he added. A splendid piece of history indeed.
