In saecula saeculorum....

One has to congratulate Bill Wallis on his reading of this work by John Mortimer. The perfect adaptation of a voice to the text: somewhat world-weary, amusingly observant, ever optimistic and unfailingly appreciative. It makes one feel how pleasant it would be to sit down with this man and listen to him reminisce.

Having come across the book, by chance, a decade ago, and having read it three times, I still find renewed delight in listening to this audible book by Bill Wallis.
