Yesterday afternoon I read "The White Feather", the penultimate books in P.G. Wodehouse's "School" series (which, as I've mentioned previously, although far less well-known that his "Jeeves" and "Blandings Castle" series, is my personal favourite). In this book (which is a sequel to the earlier book, "The Gold Bat"), a member of the school who "funks out" of a fight with some local youths and is shunned by his schoolmates as a result, resolves to prove his courage by secretly learning to box. An excellent story.
On now to the next Agatha Christie, "The Secret of Chimneys" - her 6th novel, published in 1925.
