Mrs. Dale, the doctor's wife, records the daily happenings in the Life of her family
Script by Lesley Wilson
Last week Boysie, the little dog sent by Alec to Dr. Dale to guard his car, bit Dr. Dale. Mrs. Dale, and David. Dr. Dale said he must be destroyed. Mrs. Freeman felt sorry for the dog and took him up to her flat, but Captain and Boysie snarled at each other all day. Mrs. Freeman took a taxi to town, where she was to meet Maud French for lunch...Miss Pink arrived alone, saying Mrs. French had gone to the Exhibition with an American friend and Alec. Mrs. Freeman was so annoyed that she and Miss Pink had a large lunch at Maud's expense. That evening Miss Pink arrived with a large bunch of flowers and some new books as a ' peace offering ' from Maud. Mrs. Freeman did not want to accept the presents but she suddenly had the idea of giving Boysie to Maud as a return ' peace offering.' Mrs. Dale lost the family's ration books.
