Ozzie and his family get ready for the visit of Uncle Rusty from London. As Ozzie says: 'Prediction: This forthcoming social event will throw my parents into a state of pre-visitor-tension, and our family will suffer from DISHARMONY.' And it does. Mum goes into a frenzy of getting the house tidy (read u Ozzie has to clean his room!), the lawn mowed and the menu prepared. The Brat, Snoops, Ozzie and Dad all suffer.
