Story4.5 out of 5 stars 432
Here's a question for you. What's the most exciting thing ever found in a fire bucket? And don't say 'fire' because you'll be wrong. Suppose - just suppose - it was the technology to take a pod to Mars? Yeah, now we're talking! Every Christmas, for reasons which seem good at the time - especially after an eggnog or two - Max and the others leap into the nearest pod and indulge in their illegal Christmas jump. It's a tradition. This year, however, just to be different, they find themselves part of someone else's illegal Christmas jump. It's time to don a spacesuit and bring your own urine!

Most children go through a dinosaur phase. Learning all the tongue-twisting names, picking favourites based on ferocity, armour, or sheer size. For many kids this love of ‘terrible lizards’ fizzles out at some point between starting and leaving primary school. All those fancy names slowly forgotten, no longer any need for a favourite. For all those child dino fanatics who didn’t grow up to become paleontologists, dinosaurs seem like something out of mythology. They are dragons, pictures in books, abstract, other, extinct.

On the surface, the Victorian age is one of propriety, industry, prudishness and piety. But scratch the surface and you’ll find scandal, sadism, sex, madness, malice and murder. Presented by Stephen Fry, this series delves deep into a period of time we think we know, to discover an altogether darker reality. The stories we’re told offer a different perspective on an era which underwent massive social change. As education, trade, technology and culture blossomed, why was there an undercurrent of the ‘forbidden’ festering beneath Victorian society?

A Normal Life in an Abnormal World
- By Arthur D. Rich on 08-26-17
Publisher's Summary
Everyone deserves to get away for a bit. Even the miscreants at St Mary's.
Astonishingly, Dr. Bairstow has declared a holiday. Even more astonishingly - he's paying for it. Needless to say, there are strings attached. They have to record the 1601 performance of Hamlet, with Shakespeare himself in the role of the Ghost. It doesn't go well, of course.
With Dr Bairstow and Mrs Mack turning a simple visit to a street market into a public brawl, Professor Rapson inadvertently stowing away on a vessel bound for the New World, and Shakespeare himself going up in flames, it would seem that Max, of all people, is the only one actually completing the assignment.

Saint Mary's Meet Shakespeare
Where does The Great St. Mary's Day Out rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
Quite high... this was a lot of fun.
What did you like best about this story?
The circus-like farce in general. Each group of Saint Mary's staff with their own adventures.
Have you listened to any of Zara Ramm’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
Yes, she does an excellent job as usual.
Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
This story was pretty light hearted ad I was laughing out loud several times.
Any additional comments?
This takes place after Lies, Damned Lies, And History and before And The Rest Is History. Contains some spoilers for Lies, Damned Lies, And history. Recommended.

Chock full of fun
Jodi Taylor can pack a lot of action and fun into one and a half hours. She is a talented writer and a marvelous wit. This story is great - one of the best of her short stories. Taylor can paint a crystal clear picture with just a few words, but narrator Zara Ramm can really make those words zing. Her narration of the St. Mary's Chronicles stories is perfection.
In this story almost the entire St. Mary's gang have gone to England in to view in real time the performance of Hamlet in which the great bard William Shakespeare himself is performing the ghost. Almost all of them get into big trouble, including the head of St. Mary's who has gone to sit in the best seats in the house. Markham literally gets into the act. Great fun.

Shakespearean level mayhem done St Mary’s style
Only the inmates, ahem, members of the St Mary’s team can create mayhem on a Shakespearean level when they take a group outing to 1601 London to see Hamlet performed at the Globe Theatre with The Bard himself as the Ghost.
What does it say when Max and Lingoss are the responsible ones, staying put and recording the performance? This includes a group headed by Dr Bairstow, Major Guthrie, Mrs Marks, and Mrs Enderby!
Ramm is commendable as narrator.

Lighthearted, classic, romp
Who was your favorite character and why?
A certain, Bristolian member of the security section is always my favourite character - becuase, well, the Gods love a trier
Which scene did you most enjoy?
The post romp interview in the directors study is always fun
Any additional comments?
Zara Ramm is simply the best narrator I have yet heard in 200 audiobooks

A riot!
The St Mary's short stories are every bit as good as the full-length novels, and always make me laugh out loud.
Zara Ramm's performance is terrific, too - I love her range of voices, which really add to the story, as well as helping the listener keep track of a lot of characters. This combination of writer and narrator is an absolute winner.

Brilliant!
Loved this story. Rip roaring tale full of energy and fun. Great to catch up on what happens after the huge events at the end of book 7 (no spoilers) and, as always, love Markham. Listened to it in one sitting, then immediately went back to the start and listened to it again. Can't believe how Jodi Taylor can cram so much into one short story. Favourite line? Possibly that Matthew is not to be used as a draft excluder. Naughty Jodi to stir up the mud again over Markham's status - trying to avoid spoilers again! Love, love, loved it.

Enjoyed this immensely.
The book was again a joy to listen to. Nice and relaxing with a good chunk of humour. New characters coming into their own 🙂.Just a pity Amazon decided it was time to pay for this short story after the others .5's were free.

5 stars - as usual!
What can I say! Yet another hugely enjoyable outing for the irrepressible 'in-mates' of St Mary's! I wait, with very little patience, for the next volume in this very endearing series! Zara Ramm brings them to life in her own, superb, fashion! These books would just NOT be the same without her!!

Too short!
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
Wouldn't recommend as the asking price is too high. 1 credit for 22MB. I'm a huge fan of Jodi and Zara but I wouldn't have bought this if I had noticed how very short it is.

Another great story...only marred by being short.
Would you listen to The Great St. Mary's Day Out again? Why?
Bought on day of release - read the same day...as usual.Lots of references to previous stories, just spoilt by being FAR TOO SHORT.Roll on the next full length story.
Who was your favorite character and why?
The Bristolian...who else?
What does Zara Ramm bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you had only read the book?
Excellent Narration. I found myself wondering how many accents she has to do in one short story?
Any additional comments?
Bring on the next one.....fast.

Verily, nay, heartily enjoyed
I'm all shook up. Thank you very much for this wondrous theatrical offering. Having done said roll and pat down with bare hands in the real world my burns were strikingly more prominent than those Mr Markham appeared to have but I enjoyed the story, as ever, despite the flash backs. Wonderful story and telling as usual.
