Answers
Answer:
The narrator describes his uncle, Mr Thomas and aunt, Mrs Sarah. The couple looked unmatched to the boy, as the former is abnormally huge and noisy in comparison to the latter, who very small, gauzy and quiet.
Episode 2:
In this part, the boy heard about the outing for the first time. Mr Benjamin Franklyn, a friend of the boy’s uncle, came with the news that everything was going right according to the plan. He said he had collected enough money for the charabanc and twenty cases of pale ale. In addition to this, he also declared to give a pound to every member on the first stoppage. But Will Sentry was sceptical of him as Bob the Fiddle, their ex-treasurer, had swindled money on their last outing. After that, it was decided that the new treasurer must show the account clearly.
Episode 3:
On the next Sunday, Mr Franklyn came with the list of the members going on the outing. Everybody got satisfied and the plan was approved. It was decided that they would go on the outing on coming Saturday.
Episode 4:
When Sarah heard that Mr Thomas is going on an outing, she didn’t like it. She gave him the option to choose one between wife and outing. Quite surprisingly uncle chose the latter. But it does not mean that their relationship is broken after that, Mr Thomas raised her onto a chair and got punishment from her, which was always several blows from a china dog. Sarah went to her mother’s house on Saturday leaving the required instructions in a note like every year.
Episode 5:
The final part of the story describes the outing and the peculiar habits of its members from a boy’s perspective. Mr Thomas took his nephew with him on the outing. The other members did not like that but they soon forgot it as they wanted to start at the right time for the Porthcawl. But when they left the village and reached a bit further they found O. Jones missing. They had to return back to the village to take him which Mr Weazley didn’t like. But when they set off again, Mr Weazley remembered that he had forgotten his teeth at home. He requested them to go back to the village but this time on one listened to him.
In the way, they stopped at every pub, assigned the boy to look after the old bus and drank a lot. The whole afternoon passed in drinking and at dusk, they reached a stream. They swam in it and forgot that they had to reach Porthcawl. Actually, they could not reach the place they had aimed for and returned home from the mid-way. While returning home they didn’t find any pub open. Thus, the thirty drunkards decided to assemble into a field and drank more. By this time the boy was so tired that he fell asleep. This humorous story ends by showing how in our day to day life we run after glamour, immediate gains, and amusement. The thirty men never reached the destination they had aimed for as they didn’t realize the value of time. It also makes us realize that how the grown-ups always dictate the children about the right and wrong things but they hardly bother what example they themselves set for them.
