Mrs. Dale, the doctor's wife, records the daily happenings in the life of her family
Script by Joan Carr-Jones
To be repeated tomorrow at 11.0 a.m.
Last week Miriam, Miss Pink, and Bob spent a pleasant week-end in Cornwall and Miriam leased a cottage. When Bob was ready to drive back to town, Miss Pink gave him a letter to give to Maud, because she said Miriam had asked her to stay as her companion. When Maud read the letter she said on no account would she ever have Miss Pink back. However she got so muddled with her engagements that she pleaded with Bob and Alec to go to Cornwall with her to try and persuade Miss Pink to be her secretary again. Sally, worried because Michael was caking Jenny out too much, told Gwen. Jenny told Bob she was expecting to become engaged to Michael. Mrs. Morgan strained her back, and Dr. Dale told her she must rest and had to reassure her that Mrs. Skeats would not take her place while she was away
