- Narrator: Yes, their two days' honeymoon is over and it's back to work for both of them. Saying goodbye is a heartbreaking business, especially for newlyweds. But Mary doesn't let Bill down. Her face is smiling even if her heart isn't, until the train is out of sight. And if she cries a little after this, well, wouldn't you? But Mary, like all of us in these difficult times will not give way to self-pity. That would be letting Bill down. She wants him back, just as you want your husband, your son, your sweetheart back. Back for good, victorious, never to go away again, to enjoy happier days in a better Britain. Mary knows she can help her Bill by working hard and saving hard. And so can you, by putting every penny you can into war savings, you can help your man win that better way of life we are all fighting for.
