Right Ho, Jeeves
·
P. G. Wodehouse

Pongo
had
assured
me,
while
chatting
of
the
affair
on
the
previous
night,
that
this
birthday
binge
of
his
was
to
be
on
a
scale
calculated
to
stagger
humanity,
and
I
must
say
I
have
participated
in
less
fruity
functions.
It
was
well
after
four
when
I
got
home,
and
by
that
time
I
was
about
ready
to
turn
in.
I
can
just
remember
groping
for
the
bed
and
crawling
into
it,
and
it
seemed
to
me
that
the
lemon
had
scarcely
touched
the
pillow
before
I
was
aroused
by
the
sound
of
the
door
opening.
I
was
barely
ticking
over,
but
I
contrived
to
raise
an
eyelid.
“Is
that
my
tea,
Jeeves?”
“No,
sir.
It
is
Mrs.
Travers.”
And
a
moment
later
there
was
a
sound
like
a
mighty
rushing
wind,
and
the
relative
had
crossed
the
threshold
at
fifty
m.p.h.
under
her
own
steam.

It
has
been
well
said
of
Bertram
Wooster
that,
while
no
one
views
his
flesh
and
blood
with
a
keener
and
more
remorselessly
critical
eye,
he
is
nevertheless
a
man
who
delights
in
giving
credit
where
credit
is
due.
And
if
you
have
followed
these
memoirs
of
mine
with
the
proper
care,
you
will
be
aware
that
I
have
frequently
had
occasion
to
emphasise
the
fact
that
Aunt
Dahlia
is
all
right.
She
is
the
one,
if
you
remember,
who
married
old
Tom
Travers
en
secondes
noces,
as
I
believe
the
expression
is,
the
year
Bluebottle
won
the
Cambridgeshire,
and
once
induced
me
to
write
an
article
on
What
the
Well-Dressed
Man
is
Wearing
for
that
paper
she
runs--Milady’s
Boudoir.
She
is
a
large,
genial
soul,
with
whom
it
is
a
pleasure
to
hob-nob.
In
her
spiritual
make-up
there
is
none
of
that
subtle
gosh-awfulness
which
renders
such
an
exhibit
as,
say,
my
Aunt
Agatha
the
curse
of
the
Home
Counties
and
a
menace
to
one
and
all.
I
have
the
highest
esteem
for
Aunt
Dahlia,
and
have
never
wavered
in
my
cordial
appreciation
of
her
humanity,
sporting
qualities
and
general
good-eggishness.
