Pools Paradise

More about the book

Set in the Reverend Lionel Toop's vicarage, the story unfolds with comedic chaos as his wife, Penelope, engages in a football pool alongside their maid, Ida, and her suitor, Willie Briggs. The plot thickens when they believe they've won a staggering 20,000 pounds, leading to a series of humorous misunderstandings. Adding to the hilarity are Miss Skillon, the quirky parishioner, and Penelope's eccentric uncle, the Bishop of Lax, creating a delightful blend of zany characters and situations.
