The references to plumbing mean nothing to me, perhaps that's just as well.
Regarding the date of WDMTGTS — it is not important. What matters, is the fact that it is a wonderful and unique book. But for those who like to be sure, Ransome, writing after completing Picts, compiled a chronology, and WDMTGTS is the 4th week of the summer holidays 1932.
