Four more classic episodes of high jinks on the high seas with the crew of HMS Troutbridge.

 

Back from the Antarctic (2 July 1967)

The Naval Review (30 July 1967)

Troutbridge's Silver jubilee (10 September 1967)

Sub Lt. Phillips at Dartmouth (29 October 1967)

The Navy Lark , one of radio's longest running laughter-makers, kept the nation on the crest of a wave from 1959 to 1977.

All at sea in the Senior Service were conniving Chief Petty Officer Jon Pertwee , silly-ass Sub-Lieutenant Leslie Phillips , and the constantly bemused Stephen Murray as 'Number One'. Tenniel Evans made mischief as Leading Seaman Goldstein, and Ronnie Barker played Able Seaman Fatso Johnson and Engineer Queeg, a man permanently out of his depth.

Jump on deck and join them once again in these classic capers, as the crew return towing a flotilla; the Fleet abandons Troutbridge; Pertwee borrows the ship's silver tea service; and Phillips reminisces about his youth.

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.
