As we were returning from Carolingia's "Party at Herot" event in March 2001, we decided to search for the best of Burger Kings. I had happened upon it by accident some months previously, and the four of us were in the mood for a Quest. Our party was four: Sir Mord the Green, Baroness Mairi ni Raghaillaigh, His Lordship Francois Thibault, and myself, Baroness Cynthia du Pré Argent.
Sir Mord found in his archives the Beowulf fragment at the top of
this
page, Baronesses Cynthia and Mairi took photos
illuminations, and His Lordship Francois danced attendence and paid for
the fodder for the horses that got us there (bought at the stables of
the Exxon brothers.)
Long did we search! Fully half an hour, and finally
found it. South of Hartford, take exit 17 from Route 91 in
Connecticut; go west less than a mile, and on the left side of the road
(East Main Street) you will see the Burger King. But it isn't
this one anymore (see above.)
I
encourage
you to write to the Burger King Corporation and tell them that you will
miss the pictures, and the unusual and wonderful quality of this
restaurant.
NOTE: I have no affiliation with Burger
King! Do not write to me about Burger King
problems! I get a few emails per year from people thinking this.
They'll let anyone have a computer these days....
The image of the Beowulf manuscript was gratefully stolen from the
guide pages of The
Electronic Beowulf CD, which looks like a really keen thing for Old
English fanatics.
