Mrs. Dale, the doctor's wife, records the daily happenings in the life of her family
Script by Basil Dawson
Mrs. Morgan fell and sprained her ankle while hanging curtains and Mrs. Leathers incompetently filled the breach the next day. Sally and Mrs. Freeman met the woman who was interested in buying the shop next door to ' Sarah,' and although they liked her instantly, Sally was not optimistic about the business prospects. Fickling's spring cleaning upset Richard Fulton and he sought refuge at his club and gave Gwen a few days' holiday. Sally's first meeting with Trevor was unsatisfactory; she told Mrs. Benneth she could not be his guardian, but was persuaded to let the matter rest awhiJe. Sally was a little taken aback when she found out that another shop was selling the Royal Tour scarves as an exclusive line. Mrs. Gascoyne. having been successful in persuading Monument to sign his objection form, found it was useless and that they would have to have an objection from a lease-holder.
