Four Classic Episodes of Nautical Mayhem on Board HMS Troutbridge.

The First Episode
Having Their Fun
The Fairground Lights
The Whittlesea Carnival and Fete

All at sea in the Senior Service were Stephen Murray's Number One, Petty Officer Jon Pertwee and silly-ass Sub-Lieutenant Leslie Phillips and the constanly bemused Stephen Murray as "Number One". Below decks Ronnie Barker was just about working his passage as (Un)Able Seaman "Fatso" Johnson.

So climb aboard for four classic capers, in which the crew are assigned to their new inspecting officer Commander "Thunderguts" Povey, CPO Pertwee tries to maximise his earning potential with a few extra chairs, an idea for a touring fairground suffers when HMS Troutbridge goes to sea for the first time, and a trip to the Whittlesea Bay Regatta ends up the creek thanks to Sub-Lieutenant Phillips' extraordinary navigational skills.

Audio books really are a wonderful thing, not only do they transport you to other worlds, introduce you to other people’s ideas and culture, they are also a lot more flexible than books. The book drains your time in a world where time is a very valuable thing, in mp3or wma format however; stories can be listened to anywhere and on any music device. It doesn’t matter if you use an mp3 players or a cd player, whether you are jogging, washing the pots or transforming the boring commute to work with excitement and intrigue and you can listen to them at any time.

Now with the internet audiobooks are a lot more accessible and easier to obtain than normal books, going online for them is quick, simple and saves time that would be other wise spend trawling through stores trying to find one you really want.

Many sites offer a few free downloadable introductory titles, to get you started and no doubt hooked on the splendour of them. What better way to spend a Saturday evening than to sit back, relax and enjoy a good audiobook, instead of renting a dvd or stagnating in front of the television. Unlike rentals, they can be kept for life and enjoyed again and again.
