The Wedding Planner

Today, the wedding planner is mostly dampish around the ankles. This is because she walked to a florists (who said, "oh no, you need our out-of-town-only-drivers-need-apply branch, we can't help you here"). Then she walked to the Town Hall, where the event will eventually happen, and extracted a useful email address from some mildly witless staff by dint of much staring.

Haha! Hahahahaha! Now I can contact the highly intelligent, competent planning person at the Town Hall in the way most convenient to me! Ahahahaha! Power is mine! No longer will I deal with mere minions!

Er, then she paddled back to the office and wrote an email. She is feeling very accomplished and wonders whether she is allowed to buy some Wodehouse to celebrate. If she decides she is, what do you recommend?

Yes.

And I recommend the Jeeves Omnibus if they still sell it.

I think so too. But your pronouns seem to be taking a leaf out of DarthFi's book. Or Caesar's.

Jeeves is good, of course, but I've always been partial to the more outlying series - Psmith, Ukridge, Mr Mulliner, Monty Bodkin and so on. Some of the once-offs are great, too (Piccadilly Jim stands out in my memory).

For Jeeves full-lengths, my money is on The Code of the Woosters, with Aunts Aren't Gentlemen running a close second.

Lucky you :-)
