Mr Shepherd is purposefully taking Aunt Sally on a canal boat holiday through West Chester in order to see a museum owner, Mr. Pursglove, who he believes wishes to purchase Aunt Sally. However before he can leave Worzel spies Aunt Sally in the back of his car and decides to jump in and stow away with them. At the boatyard Worzel gets out of the car to explore and ends up seeing a face he recognizes, Saucy Nancy. Worzel climbs aboard her boat but, unfortunately it’s the same boat Mr Shepherd has hired and so both of them are there when Aunt Sally gets aboard and, of course, a fight ensues.
