Bertie is roped into a visit to Deverill Hall, a country house owned by friends of his Aunt Agatha. Once there he finds an over-abundance of aunts, several couples on the outs and himself impersonating Gussie Fink-Nottle. Thankfully Jeeves is there to set things straight and help everyone out of their trouble.

Day 296.
Here I will note 365 books (or as many as I will have before I get tired) that have shaped my taste in literature. No explanations, no reviews. Just the cover of the book.
I do not challenge anyone. You are all welcome to take part.

Quite possibly my favorite Wodehouse, though there's stiff competition for that honor. Bertie and friends get into a number of quandaries, and as usual, Jeeves solves the unsolvable with his great brain.

The hunting song over the port kills me every time. 😆

"At these frightful words, the spirit of the Wooster felt as if it had been sat on by an elephant. And not one of your streamlined, schoolgirl-figured elephants, either. A big, fat one" When I meet people who produce humour in the middle of crisis, I tie them to the old heartstrings with hoops of steel :)
