Gaudy Night has one of my favorite minor characters in the Lord Peter 'verse - St. George. His "Oh, look! your bag's opened itself wide and all the little oojahs have gone down the steps," was so goofy and charming that he won my heart then and there.
(Now I want to re-read it. You're a bad influence, you. *g*)
St. George is fun. (I was about to say something nice about him, but realised it's a spoiler for the next book, and others in the community might not have read them yet.)
