It ain't going to be a breeze! ROBERT'S GIRL TAKES OFF

As a radio host on The Breeze, Robert Scott is well-known for his upbeat personality, but lately there’s something causing his top lip to quiver – the departure of his beloved daughter Molly on her big OE.

“I pretty much decided to go on the spur of the moment because I wanted to live outside my comfort zone,” says Molly, 22, just before her departure. “But Dad is most definitely banned from the airport because he’ll be such a wreck when we say goodbye.”

“I have done so much preparation,” Molly says with a grin. “I’ve sorted everything it’s possible to sort. I have a bank account, a phone plan. I’ve found a flat to move into, as well as a job with a creative agency. I’ve even booked a driver for when I arrive.”

When Molly says she’s also made friends with “randoms” she’s met online, similarly aged youngsters in London, Robert’s eyebrows shoot up, but he knows Molly makes sensible decisions.
