Brian tells Tom
Brian really knows how to wind Tom up, and make him feel like a wee schoolboy who doesn’t know his cash flow from his profit!
Telling Tom that his veal and ham pies would be too niche a market – a gamble – and that he doesn’t have the capital to even start up – Brian’s reminding Tom that he ‘could have had all this’ if he hadn’t gone it alone.
As annoying as Brian can be at time, he certainly does know how to make money.
First it sounds like they don’t know how to switch a computer on …
Which was Kathy and Pat talking about printing “thingys”, thinking it’d take 10 minutes to print off one sheet of A4 and wondering how on earth they can find out what’s on for teenagers by using the internet
… then they’re on Facebook
Kathy then jumps onto the computer, and starts using Facebook.
Which is yet another mention of Facebook in Ambridge.
Think Mark Zuckerberg has shares in the village shop, so they have to play nice?
Ouch! The pitfalls of social media for teachers
I think Kathy is right to tell Jamie to take his teacher’s picture off of his Facebook page, but it’s only natural that he’d want it up there. And isn’t it Kenton’s fault for having it on his website? But ultimately, people in the public eye (even if that’s just a very local eye).
I’d be surprised if Kenton even knows what Jamie’s teacher looks like. So I suppose all Kenton was really doing was showing that Jaxx is a fun place to be. If fun is looking totally wasted …
And Jamie shouldn’t really have his mum as a friend. Isn’t that just asking for trouble? Where’s the fun in mucking around with mates online if mum can check up on what you’ve been saying?
Either way, Kathy will blame Kenton, so we’re due another shouting match over the next day or so.
Ah, the joys.
Three words I’d never thought I’d hear put together – Helen, healthy, happy
Pat was showing Tom a ‘sneak preview’ picture of Helen’s baby (which he just about managed to muster a smile over), and all seems well.
Helen was just coming in as we moved on from Bridge Farm, but if Helen is indeed happy- maybe we’re all about to experience a completely new Helen.
Still, there’s plenty of time for something to go awry. That’s be far more in character …
Only 30-40 pies a week?
Despite desperately wanting to go ahead with the veal and ham pies to prove a point to Brian – Tom’s found his own sense, and won’t be going ahead.
Seems that the feedback only suggested that he’d sell 30-40 pies a week, so it’s “not worth the hassle”
That should make Vicky a happy lady again (albeit still very bitter at him), but what’s next?
Who else can Tom steal an idea from?
