Dufty Dufty Popple & Dunn is a traditional solicitors' firm in the small Midlands town of Hockam (pronounced Hokum, as the local residents are at pains to point out). This heart-warming collection of stories revolves around the lives, relationships, triumphs & failures of the good people of Hockam & of the lawyers to whom they look for help. We meet the lonely dentist & his noisy neighbours, the TV celebrity chef & his complex family, the policeman & his beloved budgies, the Vicar & the Major General, the greedy beneficiary of an uncle's Will. These & many others bring their problems to Dufty Dufty Popple & Dunn to be resolved by the long-suffering & well-meaning members of the firm, all of whom have their own lives to live when time permits, from Bernard, the hapless trainee, to Hugo Dufty, the nominal senior partner. & then, of course, there are the ever-present rumours concerning Robert Popple, the former partner who departed from the firm some years previously in mysterious circumstances. The whole symphony of life portrayed here is conducted with gentle humour & charm by Hugo's father, Charles Dufty, who founded the firm fifty years ago & whose wisdom & deep understanding of the human condition helps to make sense of even the most difficult & apparently insoluble problems. In this humorous & touching debut collection, Alan Hammond paints a timeless portrait of life in a rural English town. Welcome to Hockam. This audiobook has 7 CDs & has a runtime of 513 mins ...
