Just to flesh out my post above:
SW Ch XI: The Amazons have just arrived at the camp and are talking about the rush to get ready:
"After that everybody was fairly whirling, and nobody really slept, and Captain Flint and Timothy rushed us round to the station in Rattletrap first thing in the morning, and we spent the night in London with Aunt Helen..."
"Not the Great Aunt?" said Roger.
"No. A good one," said Nancy. "And then your friendly natives met us at Ipswitch and rushed us to Pin Mill. We just saw Miss Powell's and had one look at the Goblin and then we were dumped into that motor boat and your natives said Good luck and were off for London and we were off for here. Buzz was the right word from the beginning."
