Back Menhir: "When the Romans try to contain the threat from the Gaulish
village by building a sockade around it, Asterix and Obelix lay a bet
with them. They will break out and claim their right to travel freely
all over Gaul, collecting the local delicacies and bring them back to
prove their point. Ham from Lutetia, fizzy wine from Durocortorum, fish
stew from Massilia in the south . . . soon their shopping bag is full.
Outwitting Romans, a couple of treacherous Gauls, and the thieves
Villanus and Unscrupulus, they set off for home. . .but who's that
little dog who has been following them all the way from Lutetia?"
