At the end of a rainy, dreary August, the Larkins are all feeling a bit mopey and depressed so Pop decides that they need a holiday and suggests that they go to Brittany where his son-in-law, Charley, spent happy times as a child. With such a large family, they agree that it would be easier for everyone if they flew the Rolls Royce over too as it could accomodate all of them on their excursions. When they finally arrive at the small, shabby hotel, the owner, Madame Dupont, wrongly assumes that anyone who could afford to drive such a magnificent car, has to be a Mi'lord and treats Pop as such. The usual mix ups with food, drink and language occur and when the owner discovers, by means of their passports, that Ma and Pop aren't legally married, it's put down to the eccentricities of the English aristocracy. It's a very pleasant, amusing read with all of the lovable characters playing their parts.
