- I seem to remember that in one of the books (I don't remember any title)
- Bertie is almost run over by a car due to absentmindedness, but is pulled
- onto the pavement by a passer-by who happens to be Jeeves. Jeeves then takes
- him to the butler's club, where they run into a distasteful member of said
- club who addresses Jeeves as "Reggie" (Reginald).
-
- Bertie has met this person before, and grows quite worried because -- as a
- member of the butler's club -- he has access to the book where Jeeves has
- scrupulously chronicled Bertie's (mis)adventures.
