    Nick, I have neglected far too long in restating my appreciation for your superlative talent in breathing life into every Wodehouse character. I confess to the multitude of times your oratory skills have lulled me into the peaceful world of Bertrand. You are instrumental in stifling the daily stresses that can occupy this person’s mind at the end of a day. I thank you, truly, and wish upon you and yours the smiles and happiness that you so graciously bring to so many of us.

    You express my thoughts and gratitude well, PC. It's mind blowing how aptly you, Nick, capture each character in your expression, and how fluidly you flow from one to another. Like others, I also use your readings to take me to sleep, because, once I know the storyline, your expression is so beautiful that it continues to delight indefinitely, and brings out ever more nuances in Wodehouse's writing. I would like to contribute financially by way of thanks, but how?

    Wonderful reading of a very funny story. Thank you for recording and uploading it. At the risk of being a tedious pedant, I did wonder why the Red Dawn leader called his daughter Charlotte Corday, after the (moderate) Girodin who assassinated the (extremist) Jacobite Marat. But it's too late to ask P G Wodehouse about it!

    Apologies for two mis-spellings above. The moderate party in the French Revolution was the Girondins, and the extremists were the Jacobins, not Jacobites (an officious spellchecker was responsible for the latter mistake).

    Please read and consider doing the poetry of Banjo Patterson especially his comedic ones such as "the Geebung Polo club" your voice and style lends very well to humour and with that lilt toward sarcasm/astonishment.

    I say old chap you misunderstand. What seems to *you* odd was mainstay of the day and merely reflected in speech and expression by this fine narration giving one an accurate glimpse of what life was like (plus adumbrations of why) for nobles and gentry like Bertie and his man servant, valet. par excellence, Jeeves. 😏 Ya know?
