Summary
Pathe synopsis: A bubble-car drives on to the turn-table deck of a houseboat and a family sets off, taking their home and their motorcar with them wherever they go. Sharing the river with this latest houseboat is a faithful replica of an old-time showboat at Guildford, Surrey. It’s the sort of craft the Ol’ Man River used to know.
