NANCY'S PRIVATE AFFAIR
TAKE MY TIP
PETER FLIES HIGH
In a cosy, lamp‑lit commercial room of a small‑town hotel, a colourful cast of traveling salesmen, a fast‑talking landlord and a stoic doctor gather for their nightly routine. The walls are hung with faded sporting prints, the fire crackles, and the ticking clock offers a steady backdrop to the chatter of Penfold, Malcolm, Beldon and their companions. Their easy banter is suddenly spiced by whispered rumors of a former guest—Jerry Bundler—who never quite left the inn.
When the night deepens, an inexplicable chill and a faint, persistent ticking hint that something unseen may be lingering among them. The characters’ practical jokes and rivalries turn into uneasy curiosity as strange noises echo through the room, and the ghostly presence begins to weave itself into their conversations. Listeners are invited to share the suspense and humor of a classic turn‑of‑the‑century farce, where every creak could be a clue and every laugh may mask a deeper mystery.

1863–1943
Best known for the chilling classic "The Monkey’s Paw," this English storyteller had a gift for mixing everyday life with suspense, humor, and a strong sense of place. Much of his work grew out of the dockside world he knew as a boy along the Thames.

Best known as a British stage and silent-film actor, he also turned his hand to writing and adaptation. His surviving work offers a glimpse of the lively Edwardian theatre world he knew so well.
