.014--Farewell

[what_ho_jeeves]

What ho. [His typical greeting is a little less exuberant than usual.]

I'm sad to say that that I've come to the realization that this Wooster isn't really cut out for this job. It's a dashed tricky thing, wardening, a more convoluted process than making tea even. So the time has come for me to throw in the towel, make a strategic retreat, biff off back to London. You're all the best of fellows and you're all welcome to drop in on my flat if you're ever in the metrop. [Yes, he's including the inmates in this invitation. He's probably never quite caught on that many of them are Bad Peoples.]

Una, you're jolly well the best beazel I've ever been engaged to.

Ana, you're a marvellously clever girl, almost as clever as Jeeves, I'd reckon. I'm sorry I wasn't able to see you graduated. But you're a good egg at heart and I'm sure you'll do it in no time.

Georgie, I've got some things to give you before I go. And I'll try to look you up the next time I'm on the other side of the Atlantic.

Doctor Caesares, I've got something for you, too. You're a well-dressed gentleman, so I think you'll appreciate it.

Toodle-pip.

I'm terribly sorry to see you go, Bertie. I had thought you were doing a fine job.

[what_ho_jeeves]

I rather miss the comforts of home, I'm afraid. I've never been on a cruise this long before; it takes more out of a chap than I expected, especially as there's not even a shuffleboard for distraction.

But I'd like to leave my collection of spirits to you, Georgie, and also one of my hats, since you are one of the few to understand the importance of a proper cover for the old onion.

I shall wear it for best.

When should I drop by?

[what_ho_jeeves]

Pop in whenever suits you, Georgie. I won't be leaving until tomorrow morning.

[19centconstable.livejournal.com]

I'll be just over.

[And you get George in full uniform, because that's a proper send off.]
