Summary:

Made up of 10 units of The Traveller's Tool A trip back in time to the era of Barry McKenzie and the traditional Australian migration to England (which now seems to be reversed) for a bit of mayhem and dipsomania. Sir Les typifies the excesses of the period and resurrects a plethora of colonial colloquialisms.
