Summary
The rumbling grew as the car approached, overwhelming the bees' hum until it sounded more like an oncoming Fokker, and then abruptly cut off. Watson's voice then was audible across the garden, but he wasn’t calling to me. He was speaking to the other occupants of the car: his daughter Margaret, and her fiancé whom we were finally to meet.

Summary
“To be altogether honest with you, I’m not exactly sure I could have pulled off the scheme on my own. Deuced difficult to make the leap from roly-poly puddings to aniseed trousers without so much as a tin of sardines.”
Double drabbles inspired by each episode of the mostly lost 1965 BBC TV series, with a tiny bit of help (i.e. some heavy Wodehousian lifting) from the original stories they adapt and a little play on how they differ from them.

Summary
While I do enjoy tickling the ivories for hours at a time, and have occasionally fancied that a bit of tricky finger-work was carried out so adeptly as to bring the house down, this was in the way of being a metaphor.

Summary
Bertie must deliver a suitable birthday gift for the wretched Bassett-Fink-Nottle offspring; Jeeves applies his great brain to the Cottingley Fairies photographs; Madeline deploys an increasingly-treacly series of baby nicknames; and a shockingly unexpected encounter settles the conflict over a spiffing new green-trimmed bowler hat.
