Newbie with Question

I'm a latecomer to the fandom, via House, via Bits of Fry and Laurie, etc. and have an idea for a little something to write. What I need is a list of the girls Bertie has been romantically involved with. I have come up with

Florence Craye
Pauline Stoker
Bobbie Wickham
Madeline Bassett
Honoria Glossop
Vanessa Cook.

However, my local podunk library only stocks 6 Wodehouse books, and I haven't seen all the episodes. I apologise if this has been addressed previously; I have gone through all the back posts, however I was concentrating on all the wonderful fic. Thanks!

Let's see...he was engaged accidentally to Stiffy Byng in one episode, when one of Jeeves' plans backfired...and I can't think of anyone else off the top of my head. My spider senses tell me there may be a couple more, though.

When this list gets completed, perhaps someone ought to slap it up on Bertie's Wikipedia entry!

Let's see. He was almost engaged to Aline Hemmingway the jewelry thief---you remember, the one who stole Aunt Agatha's pearls. He proposed to Lady Cynthia Wickhammerseley but she turned him down, after nearly laughing herself into a permanent state of hiccups. He was pursued by the horrible Heloise Pringle, a Honoria Glossop lookalike. He wanted to marry the artist, Gwladys Pendlebury, but after she converted his portrait into a soup advertisement, love died. He PRETENDED to be engaged to the sleazy 'actress,' Trixie Waterbury, as a ruse to get rid of Honoria, and then was threatened with a breach-of-promise case. He once had a crush on Corky Pirbright. And in Right ho, Jeeves, he tells us that he 'got engaged three times at Brinkley,' to unspecified females, 'but no business resulted'.

He should thank his lucky stars that he has Jeeves!

That's really, really impressive. *awed*

Did you come up with all of that from memory or did you look any of it up?

Who's Vanessa Cook? That's not ringing a bell - book or television?
