==Summary==<br />
Welcome to Blandings Castle!<br />
<br />
Midsummer Mischief is set in P.G. Wodehouse's absurd world of England's leisured upper class in the 1920's or thereabouts. This is not the real world. This is a place where people shout "Wot ho!" and "You bounder!" and even "That's just not cricket!"<br />
<br />
One should always try a clever scheme, even if it might go embarrassingly wrong. Reputation is more important than anything, unless you're old and rich. Pigs are a vast, nay limitless source of conversational interest. Come join us in Lord Emsworth's old country estate of Blandings for a ridiculous weekend of gaffes, laughs, and pigs. It'll be a dashed good time!<br />
