Ron
Ron is an orphan who lives with the drunks and homeless under the pier on Bloggington beach. He is eight, likes classical music and reads a lot. He knows more about substances than most people. Generally he is to be found in the Carnegie Library on the harbour. You could say that Mrs Sideloader has adopted him, unofficially. She makes him wash.
His friend is Perkins, but Perkins has gone with Mr Grimsdyke to Dumchester. Ron is missing Perkins a great deal, so Mrs Sideloader is giving him treats. They both have rather taken to Mrs Picker's winkles and mussels.
