There is a certain small boy for whom all bus drivers are 'Charlie,' and a little girl who every day on her way to school 'catches Charlie's Big Red Bus at the bottom of the lane.'
Through such instances as these we are constantly made aware of how our storie. become related to rhe daily experiences of our young listeners-how everyday living is constantly being looked at through rhe stories, and the stories held up against the mirror of life. ' Dear lady on the wireless,' wrote a mother at the dictation of her four-and-a-half-year-old son, * I liked the story of the Big Red Bus. My grandad has a lot of buses-blue-not red. I like double deckers best because I sit upstairs at t.he back. I have seen them washing the buses. They stand on a ladder and have a big brush and some water just like in the story.' Julia Lang re-tells this story -by Jean Sutcliffe today and tomorrow. On Wednesday comes Dorothy Smith with ' The Old Haycart,' by Mary Cockett , followed on Thursday and Friday by Daphne Oxenford with ' The Family Wanted a Holiday, 'by Elizabeth Coleman.

Mrs. Dale, the doctor's wife, records the daily happenings in the life of her family
Script by Basil Dawson
Dr. Laurie organised a meeting in protest against the decision to turn Parkwood Hill Hospital into a Children's Hospital, but he did not get the support he had counted on and he told Dr. Dale that he might look for another practice outside Parkwood Hill. A girl on the next counter to Mollie, at Berridges, lost her handbag. Mollie thought she would be suspected and went to see the Personnel Manager and asked for her locker to be searched. However, before that happened a customer returned the bag, which she had picked up by mistake. Mollie felt reluctant to continue at Berridges but Bob advised her to stay. Sally considered running the shop in partnership with Peter Kingston, and refused an offer from Maud French who immediately reported rhe proposed partnership to Richard Fulton.
