Hambledon Club - Club Toast

Club Toast

The club had a famous round of six toasts:

6. The Queen's mother
5. Her (His) Majesty the Queen (King)
4. The Hambledon Club
3. Cricket
2. The Immortal Memory of Madge
1. The President.

The enigmatic "Madge" is a "what", not a "who". Indeed, it is believed to be a common, but crude, contemporary reference to the vagina.
