    The greatest stylist in English letters of the 20th century. Thanks for uploading this marvelous memoir.

    Wonderful. What a splendid chap. It was sad the way he was treated after the war because of his innocent talk to Americans from Germany. Thank goodness he eventually got a long-overdue knighthood to make amends.

      @Briar James I really appreciate your reply. I got to the site on google and I'm in the hacking process now.
      Looks like it's gonna take quite some time so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.

    He appears to have been born with the perfect temperament for humour. He then toiled endlessly on the writing skill and became a absolute master the English (and American) language. Sounds like he was discovered in Greenwich Village just like Jimi Hendrix (another master of his medium).

    Jeeves and Wooster are brilliant. I love the BBC radio drama series.

    I love his Laughing Gas which is extremely funny about Hollywood and Child Stars yet still includes an Earl and other Honourables as well.

    Excellent video covering all want Wodehouse liked for.ex he cherished Shakespeare liked Biography, autobiography, an autobiography of A.A. Milne, are authors who were writing during his times like Sir Auther Conan Doyle whose all novels I have incidently read on the Kindle.He also mentions the banning of his books ,viz. In Hungary because they didn't represent the poletariat classes. His interment in Germany .His looks are so kind.It will be impossible to find a comedy writer similar to P.G Wodehouse in 20 th or even the 21 th century.

    'I shall be 93 in October.' He died a number of months before reaching that age.

    I owe the ghost of P G Wodehouse an apology, of sorts. Elsewhere I had said that he wasn't aware that his fictional Jeeves had a real-life namesake, who played cricket for Warwickshire before the First World War. Well, in these reminiscences he lets on that he saw that Jeeves bowling for Warwickshire, and liked the name, and borrowed it for his Jeeves and Wooster stories; so he was aware of the real Jeeves' existence, at least. But I still think he ought to have worked the real Jeeves into the stories as a distant cousin; I believe he died in the first Battle of the Somme, in 1916. It would have given his Jeeves a little more depth had he established a relationship between them.

      Sorry but ol' Roger here is right. Consider reading the books again and think long and hard on why your suggestions would be dreadfully dissonant, unprofound (despite your claims that it would add depth), and a less than useless addition to the story. Wishing you all the best :^)
