The Vernon Hotel has been the host for an annual dinner of a mixed collection of gentlemen called "The Twelve True Fishermen" for more than a decade. They wear green jackets and have an unusual reason for the colour - to avoid being mistaken for waiters, specifically the black-jacketed ones at their Vernon Hotel dinner. There's a criminal story behind the colour differentiation and a little priest, Father Brown, was involved. Deeply involved. (less)
