We're in the middle of a heat-wave in Fenland, England. Goob Taylor has spenteach of his sixteen summers helping Mum run the transport cafe and harvest the surrounding pumpk in fields. When Mum shacks up with swarthy stock-car driving supremo and ladies' man Gene Womack, Goobbe comes an unwelcome side thought. However Goob's world turns when exotic pumpk in picker Eva arrives. Fuelled by her flirtatious comments, Goob dreams of better things.
