    I don't know how one person can do so many different parts, and so well. You are such a treat to listen to, Nick.

    The prolific genius, PG Wodehouse, helped me survive the Covid isolation. Now he's my go-to for sweet, soothing sleepy bedtime stories.
    And Nick is a great narrator, lively, animated, and faithful to the art of clear e n u n c i a t i o n .

    In this most peculiar time of worldwide gigantic effort to squash the effects of the tiny virus cell, forget it for a while, sit back and enjoy Bertie recounting his particular problems of the day.

    Hi nick you and Martin jarvis are the only two voice actors I can listen to at night cos you take it slow, everyone else is too highly strung, I can feel their nervous energy and I can't sleep! Also your voices for the different characters are amazing. I'm really glad I found you

    Thank you for all the kind thoughts and comments above, from all of you. My messaging is slightly wonky at the moment - to use Aunt Dahlia's expression! Feel free to use the email address on my About page - plenty of time at the moment! Also, I have recently come across a marvelous jazz band from New Orleans that make a great vintage sound, probably more Bertie than Jeeves' thing, called Tuba Skinny. If you like that sort of thing, try I Get The Blues on RUclips. I'm hooked!

    I am transported to Aunt Dehlia's bedroom where dog and man are simultaneously startled and the fun begins. I'm noting choice descriptive quotes to call upon at the right moment. Wouldn't be near as enjoyable, though, were it not for the magical voice of Mr. Martin.

      Just someone who out of the blue decided to read some short stories, edit them into something half presentable and put them up here for anyone to listen to if they wish. It was not meant in any way to be competitive with the great narrators that you name. But thanks for even considering it for a moment.
