Much of It Bonnie India
23 October 2015
The boys travel to Scotland because Stanley has been named in the will of a rich relative. When they get there, they find they have inherited a set of bagpipes and a snuff box. Now they are broke and forced to find a way to survive. After a hilarious scene in their hotel room, as they try to cook a fish, they are cast into the street. They mistakenly volunteer for the British army and are sent to India. The British imperialists are running the country. We are treated to racism, as the self-centered Scots are running the country. There are series of fun scenes, particularly those involving Jimmy Finlayson. There is also a hilarious scene where the other soldiers explain what a mirage is. The down side of the story has to do with a silly romance between a young heiress and her simple boyfriend. Not a bad offering for our guys.
