Love that one. Nancy Mitford is always good for a laugh, too. Also A.A. Milne. Harder to find than his children's books, but his adult work was mostly light comedy.

645 I'd also highly recommend the 'Mapp and Lucia' series by E.F. Benson, starting with Queen Lucia.

645 Thanks, I haven't come across that one. I've added it to my Amazon list.

645 I think The Diary of a Provincial Lady series runs a close second. Also Denis Mackail one of Wodehouses best friends, particularly We're Here, or the Adventures of Milford and Bailey, (if you can find it), and Greenery Street.

Neither could I Elizabeth, but I have found the original books a perfect antidote to current times.
