'Dad took them along to Tony's house. Tony and his mum were waiting for them [Topsy and Tim]'. Reading through the lines, Tony's mum may well have been waiting for Tony and vice versa.

Topsy and Tim were not too impressed by the zoo; they seemed happy to be at home with their own pets.

Tim has to wear a sailor suit in his role as page boy. All characters have red cheeks,

There was no queuing at all when Tim fell out of a tree and bumped his head. At the hospital, at every process, e.g. X-ray, Tim was seen immediately and seems not to be in a ward with other people. One senses this may have been carried out privately.
