When Hazel asks Budgie to take her cousin Herbert on a guided tour of London, she has no idea of the trouble her request will cause - most of it on her own doorstep.

Our tactless hero does it again. Having arrived home very late one night, to face Hazel's wrath, he compounds the issue by telling her he has a friend waiting outside - one whom he's invited to stay the night.

When he meets Inky Ballantine, and gets involved in a new money-making racket - capital investment- Budgie believes he's struck it rich. He's thought that before - but look where it got him last time.
