Bunce, the Bobby and the Broads by Fritz Zorn ~ Full Audiobook [comedy]

Bunce, the Bobby and the Broads by Fritz Zorn audiobook.

Genre: comedy

A genial holiday on England's Norfolk Broads is meant to be quiet, restorative, and properly planned - until the plans collapse and chance companions turn the trip into a rolling comedy of misunderstandings. Narrated as a breezy, postcard-like yarn, Fritz Zorn drops you aboard The Shamrock, a small hired sailing boat, where the storyteller is soon joined by Mr Bradley, a capable East End policeman - the 'Bobby' of the title. Then Bunce arrives: a well-meaning, easily impressed friend whose imagination runs faster than his judgment. When Bunce convinces himself that Bradley must be a high-ranking Foreign Office diplomat, the temptation to let the mistake stand proves irresistible, and a harmless joke begins to shape the entire holiday. As the trio drifts between riverside villages, inns, and impromptu singalongs with locals, small practical troubles - strange breakfasts, awkward travel moments, and the ever-present risk of embarrassment - threaten to tip the adventure into outright farce. Warm, witty, and sharply observant about class pretensions and male camaraderie, this is a classic turn-of-the-century ramble where the scenery is lovely, the company is loud, and the simplest lie can steer the whole boat.
