De missie: Jouw verhaal in Margate
However, you hear from a cousin that your Aunt has already boarded a Paddle Steamer and is on her way. She has been scandalised by the reports of "promiscuous" (or mixed gender bathing) and men without bathing suits that she's read in the Observer so she has come armed with much moral indignation and her best telescope.
Can you get get round the course and get your dip in the sea before she arrives?
