Ours was a cottage of the kind reproduced on chocolate-boxes and hotel walls. A mile to the nearest inn, eight to a repair-shop, no telephone in sight. Unfortunate, for the two-seater was crippled with respiratory sickness and the rain freezing, ceaseless and waspish. I boiled with indignation, then boredom. Finally, restless, I demanded that we move. “The rain precludes it, sir,” said Jeeves. "I'm bored, Reg, so bored...” He smiled, indulgently. “Into each life some rain must fall,” he said, “Yet life is neither dark nor dreary in your presence, Bertie Wooster.” Gathering me into his arms, he carried me upstairs.
