Assuming you have a header row, so your data starts on row 2, put this
formula in D2:

=IF(A2="","",C2&IF(A3=""," "&C3,"")&IF(COUNTIF(A3:A4,"")=2," "&C4,"")
&IF(COUNTIF(A3:A5,"")=3," "&C5,"")&IF(COUNTIF(A3:A6,"")=4," "&C6,"")&IF
(COUNTIF(A3:A7,"")=5," "&C7,"")&IF(COUNTIF(A3:A8,"")=6," "&C8,""))

and then copy it down as far as you need to. It will bring your
description lines together in one cell on the same row as the date and
amount, and will cope with up to 7 description cells for any
particular record (your example shows 5).

You can then highlight column D, click <copy then Edit | Paste
Special | Values (check) | OK then <Enter in order to fix the values.
Then as you have these in date order, you can highlight all the data
in these 4 columns and sort by column A. This will send your rows with
no dates in to the bottom, from which it is quite easy to delete them,
giving you what you want.

Hope this helps.
