Ah, British humour. I always think I got lost in the world of Bertie Wooster and Jeeves and Aunt Agatha and Glossop and all the rest. In fact, I revisit them often and they never fail to leave me refreshed and in a rather rummy frame of mind!
“And so the merry party began. It was one of those jolly, happy, bread-crumbling parties where you cough twice before you speak, and then decide not to say it after all.”

I've never really read any of the old British humour type things. I suppose in a way they can be funny because of how cringey there are!

Try it sometime, who knows?
DeleteOh, I love Jeeves and Wooster! About 30 years ago, I went on a major Wodehouse kick and read all his novels and stories of these two. His writing style is hilarious!

DeleteI loved Agatha Christie as a young person and still have all her books - you've just inspired me to get them out again! ~Liz http://www.lizbrownleepoet.com

I haven't read Agatha Christie in years. I used to devour her books.
