1928. The book begins: Bond Street, deserted by shopping and sightseeing crowds, is not exhilarating. It is in fact rather depressing, to one who takes it between seven and eight o'clock, on a typically wet and drizzling London night. Save for an occasional belated clerk, a watchman or two and a policeman, the young man, who was making his way from Regent to Clifford Street, found it practically his own and he did not like it. He had not been in London for more than a year and his thoughts were dreary enough without having a dull, deserted street as a background.

We were right in the middle of this, and Aunty May was a little red-faced, and her hair was kind of wild, when we heard somebody laugh, and there was the painter-man down by the river, laughing as hard as he could laugh; and Aunty Edith trying to look severe at Aunty May and not able to, on account of her looking so comical. She had a black smudge from the end of the beanpole, which had been in a bonfire, across her forehead. You see she had just jumped the farthest, and was hollering, "Glug-Glug."
