He asks Miss Boot but they're on the motorway so he sits back in his seat but is unable to sit still. In the car, Bertie's family reminds him to behave, then they drive past Burger Madness, instead ending up at another restaurant: Restaurant Paradiso. The source most people point to is a report by Roger de Hoveden, who was a contemporary of the two kings.
