About this listen
Many of their humorous adventures and mishaps relate to the nuances in language and customs; one attempts to board a train unconventionally to avoid German procedures; when riding the Bummel in Dresden one butts and rolls into German passengers who, being familiar with the route know how to brace themselves and don't see the humor, "the dull lot"; another tries to buy his aunt a cushion and gets angry after he pays for it because he gets only a kiss from a young girl instead. Three Men on the Bummel is one of the most popular classics in English comic fiction.

There are certainly genuinely witty and humerous moments but in between there is more than a little boredom.
The speaker's accent wore a bit thin after a while and the audio quality was not up to the usual standard.
Overall I'm glad I persevered but I don't think I'll be coning back for seconds.
