My Man Jeeves by P. G. Wodehouse (audiobook)

My Man Jeeves - P.G. Wodehouse, Simon Prebble

This is a collection of short stories, mostly featuring Jeeves and Wooster in America but with a few of Wodehouse's other, older stories thrown in. My favourite story (Helping Freddie) features the scene where the two bachelors are taking care of a young child (there's a story behind that as well) and after managing to get the kid undressed for bed, they prod the pool of assorted clothing items and realize it'll be absolutely impossible to get the kid dressed again without help.

 

Simon Prebble as the narrator is great, as usual.
