Meanwhile, back in the bakery, the latest plan for Justine to spend a year in Devon, covering maternity leave as Programme Manager at Dartington Summer School, is viewed with small-village-mentality suspicion. This neglect of wifely duty will surely result in the children starving in squalor, and can only mean that Justine and Simon are getting divorced. Elizabeth doesn't approve either and informed Justine that mothers should be at home looking after the children, only fathers are allowed to go away to work, and this terrible plan contravenes everything she understands to be normal and acceptable. Then she wondered aloud whether more income meant that she could have a hover-board for Christmas.
