Two young mothers - Wilson and Goulden with two boys each, between one and five years old. Billy and Stanley - slightly older from North Shields billeted with us determined to give the "grown ups" a hard time. A warm Summers afternoon, five or six elderly guests enjoying a nap in the sun at their leisure in the garden of a Braithwaite Guest House, suddenly have their afternoon disrupted by a toddler weaving in and out of the deck chairs with two toilet rolls unwinding in the breeze as he ran, decorating the sitters as he passed by. Mother in hot pursuit but not making very much ground, and highly embarrassed, trying not to wake those sleeping, catch her son, and collect up the toilet roll all at the same time without anyone noticing.
