After Johns help I was able to track down the current president of the club des cent. The current president, aged 75 is very chuffed that we want to use his clubs name but has asked us very politely not to use it! They still meet for lunch every Thursday and he said he would put our request to his members but knows already that they will share the same response as himself. He also metioned that there are seven members who live in London but didn't share their identity. So, it is back to the drawing board to choose a name, a task that is not as straigthforward as one would hope.
