And if you throw in some cats,flying unexpectedly from windows,and a young man trying ever-more-desperately to impress the family of his latest love,you get a medley of Wodehouse delights in which lunacy and comic exuberance reign supreme.Contents:- Goodbye to All Cats- Ukridge's Dog College- Ukridge's Accident Syndicate
