    I am so glad i stumbled upon these fantastic stories by P G Wodehouse. Bertie Wooster and his valet, Jeeves never fail to make me laugh outloud close to continuously in every story. For some idiotic reason, i had always thought Wodehouse wrote science fiction, which i used to enjoy very much but not anymore- for about the last 20 years. Anyway, ive been going through a great loss for over a year now, and thank God for PG Wodehouse! His stories are hilarious and when listening, my uncontrolled laughter is very goid medicine for my grieving soul. ❤💔 ❤

    Nick my dear I'm relieved to hear from you! It's been too long. Of all the many chs I sub, you & Matthew Jones, aka MJam from London, are the only ones I set for notifications. (I've been saving this one until I could give it the full attn it deserves. A special treat what!) I know you are a very busy chap but the long wait is agony. 😊 As I've said for yrs it baffles the addled that you are not mega famous! We all feel special to be in your audience...BEST PGWs since the days of masters like Richard Briers! ✔👏👍😍 TYSM luv! 😉

    I, for one, will never buy a sanitized book. Are people suddenly now so sensitive that they can’t understand writers of yesteryear were living in a different culture? It’s like those who say they would have acted differently to the way people in the past reacted to slavery, the oppression of women or the nazis. No, they wouldn’t have.

      Are they no longer called "abridged" books? Is "sanitized" the new term? As long as they're clearly labeled as such, and the originals are still available; abridged versions of books have been around for decades.

Also, your brother's shop...Is it the products purchased for the Cotswolds/Welsh home of Charles and Camilla? I saw a documentary where those traditional weaves were a huge favourite and they bought quite a few for their home? ❤

    Its a pathetic new age problem that we have become too precious and sensitive to hear the words of yesteryear.We need to understand our history to improve our future .Book or word burning is the ultimate expression of control of the human race,and dumbing down of us.

    I think that great writing stands up to removing words that are offensive to modern sensibilities. Christie and Conan Doyle are good examples.
