The Old Flame

"Written with A.P. Herbert's characteristic wry humour and great sense of fun ... Robin Moon finds Phyllis rather a distraction in the Sunday morning service - after all her golden hair does seem to shine rather more brightly than the Angel Gabriel's heavenly locks. His wife, Angela, on the other hand, is more preoccupied with the cavalier Major Trevor than perhaps she should be during the Litany. When, after an admirable pot-luck Sunday lunch, Robin descends to the depths of mentioning what happened on their honeymoon, the result is inevitable. Finding his independence once more, Robin links up with Phyllis and her friends and dabbles in some far from innocent matchmaking."
"Robin Moon finds Phyllis a distraction. His wife, Angela, is preoccupied with Major Trevor. The Moons heads towards an enforced separation. Robin then feels free to link up with Phyllis and her friends, and dabbles in some far from innocent matchmaking. This ingenious work brilliantly addresses that age old problem - that of 'the old flame'."@en
