Mrs. Dale, the doctor's wife, records the daily happenings in the life of her family
Script by Joan Carr-Jones
Last week Bob met Ashley Weston and learned that the Sandbourne Council was erecting a new sea-wall and was in need of casual labour. The next day Bob announced that he had offered his services. The Dales disliked the idea at first, but he explained that he felt he must do something practical, and eventually it was generally voted a good idea. Gwen and Mr. Ful.on discussed their working arrangement and Mr. Fulton offered to increase her salary, in order that she might employ someone to take care of Billy and return to full employment. David, however, strongly disapproved: so Mr. Fulton compromised and engaged a typist for routine wotk in the afternoons. Mrs. Dale told Geoffrey, Mollie's fiance, of Mollie's disappearance. They went together to a dance club to find her but were unsuccessful. Later Mrs. Dale received information that Mollie had gone to Dartford, so she and Geoffrey set off again.
