Description:It has been my pleasure to read through a variety of short stories many of them humorous from a great many sources. My personal selection of these stories are included in this volume. There are more than a few which are written in the local dialect which you may find difficult to follow and understand but I make no apology as to put them in their anglicised form would be to remove the humour from the particular stories.Some of these stories have actually been used as monologues as part of a comedy routine in theatres mainly in the old days before films and television were introduced. These would be enacted in the multitude of local theatres which proliferated in many countries from very early times and were very popular right up until television appeared. Some of these actual stories may have been used by comedians appearing on variety programmes such as ‘The Good Old Days’ or in burlesque shows and many comedians after World War II based their acts on these stories as well as comic poetry or parodies of famous poems such as ‘the boy stood on the burning deck’.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
