Contents
- Summer again and Greyfriars School begins to think about the holidays and where to spend them. Bunter's father is of the opinion that his son should make himswlf useful at home whereas Bunter is looking forward to complete rest plus the solace of a soft comfortable bed and ample supplies of food.
- Bunter had heard of Butlin's Holiday Camp but holidays such as they provide, be they ever so inexpensive, cannot compete in the eyes of Bunter's august parent with a completely free eight weeks at Uncle Carter's boarding house where help with the washing up would provide work for unwilling hands.
- But luck is on Bunter's side and he gets a free holiday at one of Billy Butlin's camps.
