Title explains that due to their economy, the women can run this weekend camp at 9, per head. They eat and washup in the open air. It is a women only camp, an Adamless Eden The girls smoke cigarettes in their bathing suits and have fun larking around in the river and drying each other s hair after their swim. In the evening they share cigarettes whilst listening to a windup gramophone, then beds are made up in the open air. End title reads: That s quite sufficient Mr. Cameraman, Goodnight.
