The Return of Dolly Clothes-Peg

A letter is delivered to Scatterbrook but no one, save for John and Sue, recognise the name of the person it is addressed to - Worzel Gummidge. When they find him they discover the Crowman is fixing him up and therefore reads the letter for him. It is from ‘Dolly Clothes-Peg’ writing that she is coming to see Worzel on the ‘eleventy-twelve’ bus and that she is bringing a big cake for him. Unfortunately she spends all her money, including her bus fare, on the cake and so she has to walk to Scatterbrook. When she doesn’t arrive on the bus Worzel thinks she is not coming and becomes upset, but worse is yet to come...
