Jest at the West

The Silver Slipper Saloon is in financial trouble on account of the drought. Maggie and the girls have tried to diversify, but there ain't much they can do to stimulate new business, well what they already do is pretty stimulatin' I guess!

But Maggie thinks Cecil has come to take over the saloon for the bank. Maggie's overdraft with the Wild Westpac Bank has been long overdrawn and even the flapjack flippin' competition hasn't raised enough money to clear the debt.

How these characters pull together to save the town is a rootin' tootin' ton of fun . . .Sam the Barman and Wild Bill have tried their best to help but nothing seems to be able to rescue the town until this strange lookin' city fellah named Cecil gets off the stage . . . Little White Dove and Father O'Malley are sure that things will turn out O.K.
