indeedsir_backupWell, if anyone was wondering if Bertie in the books actually ever plays the piano, the answer is yes. Sort of.
In The Code of the Woosters, Bertie has just freed himself (temporarily) of Madeline Bassett, sending her off to find Gussie's notebook filled with his thoughts on Sir Watkyn and Spode. Pleased, he gets musical:
She hurried out, and I sat down at the piano and began to play "Happy Days Are Here Again" with one finger. It was the only method of self-expression that seemed to present itself. I would have preferred to get outside a curried egg or two, for the strain had left me weak, but, as I have said, there were no curried eggs present.
Perhaps he was just too weak to do his playing justice? ;)
