Jamie’s not doing much better, Kathy talks to Pat … Elizabeth comes clean to Ruth

  • No more secrets in the Archer clan
  • Jude’s described as …
  • “Talking just a big waste of time – can’t change anything”
  • Kenton doesn’t notice, Kathy shouldn’t have to tell him
  • Yes Kenton – a trip to NZ is just what Kathy and Jamie need


No more secrets in the Archer clan

Well, one side of it anyway. For now.

Elizabeth’s told Ruth about knowing Pip had missed that exam, and that Pip also asked for more hours at Lower Loxley.

Well Elizabeth, that really wasn’t that dramatic, was it?

Ruth was rightly annoyed that she hadn’t told them before, but I think she was a wee bit off in saying that Elizabeth should’ve come to her when David wouldn’t listen. It’s not exactly Elizabeth’s fault that David can be a tad touchy when it comes to his parenting skills.

Though I noticed Ruth’s now saying that they’re not going to give Pip any travel money, after saying they would the other day.

It’s a plan to try and stop her going, but I can’t imagine they’ll stick to it if she does go. A young women, other side of the world, no money and a plonker for a boyfriend. They’ll surely have to step in at some point?


Jude’s described as …

“reckless”

“selfish”

By Ruth.

Elizabeth on Pip:

“You could see the child and adult side by side”

Ruth on Pip

“No idea what letting herself in for”

So we have a irresponsible manchild with a woman who hasn’t yet left being a girl behind.

If I was Pip’s parents, I’d be worried sick too …


“Talking just a big waste of time – can’t change anything”

Aw. I feel so sorry for Jamie amongst all of this.

As awful as I think Sid was as a person, he was still Jamie’s dad.

How sad was Josh’s mention that Jamie would have to watch the football alone if he didn’t watch it at Brookfield?

Surely Kenton could spare 90 minutes.


Kenton doesn’t notice, Kathy shouldn’t have to tell him

As well as being Sid’s dad, it’s also worth hearing that Kathy saw him as a ‘rock’ to their family.

With him gone, and Kenton acting like he couldn’t give a hoot, there’s a big gap in her and Jamie’s life.

While I agree with Pat that a relationship has to be give and take both sides, I don’t think Kathy going along to Jaxx (for the first time since the refurbishment) will make that much difference.

Kathy sees Jaxx as one of the main problems in her relationship with Kenton – but surely it’s all about Kenton being so blind to her and Jamie?


Yes Kenton – a trip to NZ is just what Kathy and Jamie need

Idiot.
