"Not only were we scooped in and shanghaied to church twice on Sunday, regardless of age or sex, but on the Monday morning at eight o'clock - eight, mark you - there were family prayers in the dining room." Fate (1936)
Sounds like a good idea. This may be the Fincher family before long.
I've not seen it - but I intend to search around and see if I can find some of those shows. I love the thought of watching Bertie suffer at the hands of ruthless Aunts and, of course, Jeeves!
I know what you mean, but you have to consider I've already read everything by Wodehouse four or five times, so I can afford NOW to save further re-reads for rainy days.
The stories of Mr. Mulliner are among my favorites, especially about his nephew Augustine, the curate.
Wodehouse is a long-time favorite of mine. I save his stories for periods of sadness or illness. They work wonders!

ReplyDeleteI'm too greedy to save Wodehouse for a Jonah day. :)
