Herbert Binstead
Butler to Sir Gregory Parsloe-Parsloe at Matchingham Hall, Binstead is a thin man, lacking the magnificent dignity of a Beach. He appears in Pigs Have Wings, making extravagant bets in the saloon bar of the Emsworth Arms on the forthcoming Fat Pig contest, but later spoils his own chances with a poorly-placed bottle of Slimmo. He has large ears, which frequently prick up in hopes of hearing something worth including in his memoirs.

Famous quotes containing the word herbert:
“Holinesse on the head,
Light and perfections on the breast,
Harmonious bells below, raising the dead
To leade them unto life and rest.
Thus are true Aarons drest.”
—George Herbert (1593–1633)
