Shouldn’t Vicky’s optimism be a good thing?

Well, it should.

So why does her never ending ability to look on the bright side annoy everyone and anyone?

It might be that she’s inappropriate – Lilian was hardly going to thank her for pointing out that Matt’s tag was a good thing as it’d lead to cuddles and wine

It might be that it’s based on an incomplete understanding – Tom makes organic sausages. Where do veal pies fit into that – even with a hint of ham?

Or, it could just be that Vicky’s optimism is an excuse for her to bully and command all she surveys.

The jury is out – until ‘it’ (whatever it is) happens.


A bacon roll and a mineral water wouldn’t see ma granny through Jeremy Kyle

Quite right Jazzer.

She’s need a tin of Irn Bru instead of the water.

I’m fond of you …

Ouch. That just isn’t something you want to hear from the one you’ve just told that you love them.

So – Paul loves Lilian – Lilian wanted to be desired, and thinks Paul is an open, generous, strong and warm man – but values his friendship – and sees her future life as being with Matt.

So Lilian’s made her choice, but is that the end of it?

What about Jennifer and Brian knowing about the whole frisson?

How will Lilian explain she’s even seen Paul, let alone that he’s been in the house, stayed overnight with her at a hotel, fixed her mum’s cooker …

And – what will Paul’s next step be? Will he try another angle? Tell Matt himself?

Or did he have an ulterior motive all along???

Either way, I’m glad the night in the hotel proved to be barren. That just wasn’t Lilian’s style.
