I take exception to this video

This is the cat nappers

What better way to switch off after another day of toil and care but in the company of that delightful duo of PG Wodehouse and Jonathan Cecil. Hilarious. Thank you very much for posting!

Wonderful! Thank you!

This is why u prefer coffee over the weak British tea ❤

I can’t listen to anyone narrate PG Wodehouse besides Jonathan Cecil. He is PERFECT here!

Put a lid on it nerd 🤓 /s

What’s the song

Thanks forposting this well-read omnibus. Ukringe is one of my favourites after Wooster & Jeeves. I just dont find Blandings that amusing, unfortunately, and am glad to know of Ukridge

This is a wonderfully constructed story..I've listened many times and each time the architecture has impressed me.more...thank you for sharing

What a great ending 😊

Tour de force reading. Best Wodehouse I've heard.

Hilarious- what a great break from our times when we all take everything so seriously!

Having the text running along with the reading is a good idea for a number of reasons. I like it.

A simpler explanation would have been "`Of note` is shorthand to say something is worth of noticing or taking notes."

Johnathan Cecil is the only Wodehouse I care to listen to! Very good, thank you!

Thanks

Jonathan Cecil is a National Treasure

Thank you ❤😂

This author should be studied as part of the school curriculum. Such a pleasure to listen to how the beautiful english language can be used, english literature at its best in my opinion x

Only Cecil can do it!!!!!!

For a man who practically had the Bible and Shakespeare memorized he does pretty well! I suspect the little details of his own stories were the exception!!

😊😊😂🙏🏻

SUCH CUTE DOGS!

Like the music choice for that one 😅

You really brought home the bacon! 🎉🎉🎉 thank you muchly for this

LOL. Nothing like Wodehouse to make one laugh!

Okay, one more time. It's too wickedly funny, once again thank you!!!

i’m pretty sure “Go Figure” is meant to be something like “nooo, really?”

Thank you for uploading. Lighthearted funny entertainment. Very well narrated

I remember Jeremy Sinden from the original Brideshead Revisited t.v. series. Excellent!

that Charles Dickens kept a name that is basically Charles Satan is something worth take note of.

THANK YOU! So funny.

Is this an idiom? Or just youth slang?

I have always heard it as a sarcasm’yea!…and with bells on’ to denote that i won’t be doing that request:)though maybe i confused that with ‘….with knobs on’ ? ‘bells and whistles’ i have heard as someone has a good job as the pay includes all the bells and whistles( house and school fees) . Been away from uk for 40 years so not hearing these on a daily basis:)

Thank you!

Thanks so much for this upload. Highly appreciated. Best wishes from Patagonia, Chile.

Yes great story from a master story teller and narrator. Very humorous 😂🎉

Another one! Yippee 😂❤😊🎉

Nice one! This is a great story, looking forward to hearing it read! Thanks

😅

Its ABSOLUTELY wonderful. I love PG Wodehouse.

I'm so happy to get to listen to an unabridged version! Thank you! 😀

As a Canadian and native English speaker, I would look at you funny if you said this in modern times. It is too wordy and a bit old fashioned. Maybe this is a common phrase somewhere, but I have never heard it. I'm guessing its a Brit thing.

'like as it might have been, a glimp'. Hilarious.
