Queen Victoria... and Prince Albert were married in 1840. Dickens uses this event as an ingenious ploy to salute and promote local felicity, advising young women upon several types of the several types of man available as companions. There comes after a section explaining various maried people from whom the young women may learn a lessons. The writer then entertains with a tale of Nicholas Tulrumble, recently appointed Mayor of Mudfog, with ideas above his train station. Mudfog is modelled out of Dickens years as a child, Chatham, and he proceeds, with this backdrop, to regale us with a satirical tale about the first getting together with of 'The United kingdom Association for the Progression of Everything [aka Technology]' supposedly performed there. Here his creativity runs riot and the writers huge effect and importance in the evolution of humorous writing is once more confirmed.Fantastic ideas such as using cauliflowers as parachutes, theme parks for dissolute nobleman to engage their rowdy behaviour, an automaton pickpocket that could be utilised by Her Majesties Federal- the sole disadvantage being it would soon wear out from overwork ! Redolent with the author's usual swipes at the establishment and his reforming zeal Quantity 3 of the Sketches is a Dickensian treat.
