Drones Club

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The fictional Drones Club, a gentlemen's club located in Dover Street, London (where a real club, the Arts Club, is based), was created by English comic novelist P. G. Wodehouse. It features in many of his Jeeves and Wooster and Blandings Castle stories.

A drone is a male bee that does no work, living off the labour of others, which aptly describes the attitude toward labour held by most of the rich, idle young men who are members of the Drones Club. But the drones have the most most important job in the hive-- they impregnate the queen.

There are actually two Drones Clubs: one on Pont Street and a smaller club on St George's Street. The current chef is the Italian Massimo Tagliaferri, who used to work with Gordon Ramsay at Claridge's. Current membership includes pop stars, peers, CEOs and princesses. The Drones Club is also a name of a Belgian P.G. Wodehouse fanclub.
