P. G.Wodehouse, Jeeves and the Hard Boiled Egg, read by Nick Martin. Short story audio book

Bertie Wooster the ever loyal friend, this time in New York helping his chum Bicky out of the bouillon and to realise his dreams of being a chicken farmer. Jeeves of course providing the solutions to, well everything.

[@angelasandersadams]

As an avid audiobook listener, with over 900 audiobooks in my audible library, I can say without reservation that your narration is superb, both in technical sound and voice. I’m impressed!!

[@Trickynickymarts]

Thank you Angela. Do tune in again!

[@angelasandersadams]

Trickynicky Marts ... I will, for sure! I love P.G. Wodehouse and you narrate his work, so well!

[@Bambisgf77]

@@TrickynickymartsI agree with Angela, your work is excellent!

This is the first time I have listened to an offering of P G Wodehouse from Nick Martin and his delivery is bang on, what.

[@rule62live90]

Another absolute banger, Nicky old boy! Perfectly voiced! 10/10

[@Trickynickymarts]

Ha! Thank you

[@TedaR]

Oh Nick you make me so happy! Hip..hip..hooray another splendid Wodehouse play! I've been stalking your ch the past few weeks in anticipation. Thank you & very well done as always! Love the pic too.

[@Trickynickymarts]

Thank you T, yes its been a bit longer this time - just been busy. I was pleased with finding that picture - glad you appreciate it. Cheers

[@Zippy-dj8ev]

Lol@ that ending. Love these Jeeves stories, and your narration of the character is absolutely wonderful , Nick! In fact, always enjoy your entire narration of the exploits of this pair. Thank you!

[@Trickynickymarts]

That's great, thank you.

[@indianatone218]

your a good egg old boy ! nicely done .

[@spikemcnock8310]

Listened to this one before and it's still fantastic, "Don't you know Jeeves"

[@Rosemary2009]

You've done it again, Mr. Martin, another wonderful reading! I hope you are having great day!

Thanks

, “hard to laugh, with egg on your face!” Not in this case. Bravo and thank you so much for these prize stories.🎭🇺🇸

[@Trickynickymarts]

Thanks - plenty more.

[@jennybohner3144]

My favourite narrator by far.

[@christinethornhill]

✨⭐️✨ Many thanks for another superb reading , dear boy. Absolutely wonderful. 👌🏼

[@Trickynickymarts]

Thank you Christine - dear girl!

[@christinethornhill]

Dear heart , gracious thanks ! My intentions are to keep some form of inclusion with those who have still got positive notions . Your voice has become incredibly more engaging with every upload . Have you ever been an actor ? I'm most intrigued . If you weren't so distant , I would just love to stay in your glammy cabins ! 🙏🏼💝

[@Trickynickymarts]

Ha! How nice of you to say Christine, but an actor no, not nearly brave enough. Or clever enough to learn those lines. Started off in the farming direction and then got more absorbed in engineering. Sadly the horsebox is likely to be un-used for this year now although it does make a nice little studio to record in for the moment.

Huzzah! Just what I needed!

[@jimmillward3505]

simply superb, what a fabulous story teller you are.

[@nfnairobi]

[@Trickynickymarts]

Ah, that wise and wonderful chap - looks like you may struggle with the last bit! Thanks.

[@NK-mn6zu]

Superlative narration - as always! Please could you do some more Roald Dahl? 😊

[@Trickynickymarts]

That is a good idea. My computer broke but I have now replaced it so more stories will be on the way shortly. Cheers N

Yay! Can’t wait. Thank you and sorry your computer broke.

How I have longed for a “man” like Jeeves. Waking up to “your coffee, sir.”

[@sandinettleford9302]

Jolly good my friend

[@Trickynickymarts]

Cheers Sandi

[@sheilamillar]

Really loving these, brilliant listening while busy with chores. It just shows how versatile Wodehouse’s writing is - Fry and Laurie of course on video, so young, and earlier Richard Briars and Michael Hordern. Your fruity voiced Jeeves works every bit as well, thankyou!

[@davidmayfield2348]

Jeeves, do you know everything? I cannot say, sir. Brilliant.

[@glorisyoung9696]

Bravo! 👏👏👏

[@judikingsman6132]

What a voice ❤

[@udayamavin]

Nothing like Wodehouse's clean wholesome humour! Could you increase the volume though? It is low on phones

[@Trickynickymarts]

Quite agree! Ah yes volume - I think it is just this one that was on the low side. Sorry about that. Try another and let me know how you get on.

excellent reading!!!

[@rosainecalmeyer4428]

Excellent thank you

[@eduardo_corrochio]

Very enjoyable voice work, but I must agree with other comments here about the volume. I'm playing this on a computer with its audio connected into a stereo system, and I have to increase the sound up to 10 (when I usually keep it at 6 for KZbin and everything else). Anyway, thanks so much for your videos; clearly you're quite talented! Best regards from across the pond.

[@Trickynickymarts]

Ok cheers for the feedback on volume - I will keep an eye on it. Many thanks.

[@judeirwin2222]

As usual, quite a few mispronunciations. One about “lifting the speckle out of your pockets” instead of “lifting the specie” (soft ‘c’ as in species) meaning money. Very slapdash. Nice voice differentiations but not much quality control.

[@Trickynickymarts]

Oh dear me, I'm in trouble again!

[@christopherstone9734]

@@Trickynickymarts jeeves o"pete ! Is there no pleasing some people? I can live with a few obscure mispronunciations, just keep on with your talented and entertaining readings. Your presentation is so professional, you should be getting paid for your great service. I bet you could read Vanity Fair really well too. Really anything by Trollope.

[@zaharabarry5347]

Boulong??? Even the English pronounce this correctly, ie bweeyon(g). The other day I distinctly heard you say trouseau, akin to trousers, for trousseau, a common English word for the wedding chest every young lady tries to fill. Please, Nick, check the frenchified pronunciations in a good dictionary. Or ask any French person, or any literate English person over the age of 50 ;)

[@zaharabarry5347]

But otherwise great reading 😊

[@Trickynickymarts]

Oh dear, slipped again - what a fox pot or however the French say it. Although I fall into the bracket you suggest regarding nationality and age am clearly not literate enough. Must try harder! Cheers.

[@Charmagh110]

@@Trickynickymarts there’s no pleasing some people Nick. It’s fantastic

[@judeirwin2222]

Nick mispronounces words all too often in these stories. Everytime it happens, I wince. Things like “lifting the specky out of your pocket” when the word is specie with a soft c.
