Computer Games, Nachos and Shandy
Say what I will about Kenton, he does know what a young lad wants from a day out.
And for five minutes Jamie wasn't shouting.
Good-oh!
"I didn't recognise you in the daylight"
Can you believe it was Kenton saying that to his new lady friend Holly than the other way round?
(Though, I suppose that depends on what you think Kenton looks like.)
He'd met Holly last night when she was celebrating her birthday in Jaxx (see my post from yesterday).
Amazingly enough, she actually liked the attention Kenton was lavishing on her!
Who'd have thunk it???
"it was great ... you really made it special ... I almost didn't mind getting a year older"
And then, Holly says she'll be in Jaxx later on to see Kenton. And mentioned "it's a date".
Even Kenton couldn't believe that one.
Do we actually believe Holly (or any other woman, for that matter) would fall so quickly for Kenton's over exuberant charms?
David knows what a 'chilling zone' is
What with Nic standing up for herself, Kenton getting a pull and now David knowing what a 'chilling zone', I'm all at sea with what I think I should think about Ambridge's residents.
But then again - isn't the correct term 'a chill out' zone?
(and I am very happy to be corrected on that one!).
Anyway, Pip's planning the Young Farmers' Barn Dance at Brookfield, and all seems to be well.
Ruth had to have one of her moments:
"have you proved to your dad that you can do it responsibly?"
(ach wheest woman!)
But David seems quite happy with the arrangements.
So nothing could go wrong, could it?
Pip and her mean machine
Well, to be fair it'll probably be a ten year old fiesta.
David seems quite keen for Pip to learn to drive (maybe so that he and Ruth can stop being her taxi service).
And bless his pride in his daughter:
"I don't expect you're going to need many anyway"
Ah bless. All's well that ends with Jude not being around ...
Times haven't changed when it comes to vodka from the local shop
Nope indeed they haven't.
The chances of being served alcohol in your local village shop are next to none if you're (a) underage and (b) a local.
I'm not sure where this Marty mate of Jamie comes from, but it seemed Jamie thought he stood a better chance of getting Sabrina to serve them:
"give her a wink, say you like her hair"
Really? Is that all it takes to get something from Sabrina?
Maybe someone should tell Kenton ...
Anyway, David Archers spoiled the party by stopping to chat.
But looks like they succeeded somehow.
Jamie and Marty later left a voice message on Kenton's phone which sounded rather drunken. And it was also rather badly timed ...
No! Not the sofa!
Kenton wows Holly with his Tom Cruise impression (from Cocktail), but then gets a light grilling about who Jamie was.
Holly thought Jamie looked like Kenton, but Kenton made clear the Jamie was his stepson.
And that they are very close.
Unlike his relationship with Kathy!
"we've split up now ... it's been a while"
"me and Kathy ... it's definitely over. Really, there's nothing going on"
Oh dear. Not quite the truth there Kenton Archer!
Still, it's a white(ish) lie. But it's one which most definitely come back to bite Kenton on his bum. The whole "but we were on a break" reasoning just isn't going to wash with Kathy. Or Holly. Or David, Elizabeth, Jill, Jamie ...
So just to make it worse, Kenton then ends up back at Holly's flat. With wine. A sofa. And a vibrating pocket
(which was Jamie making his drunken call).
While Kenton listens to Jamie's voicemail, and almost has a pang of guilt, Holly's merrily pouring more wine while singing a Gwen Stefani tune (don't ask me which one - I just recognised the 'whoo-hoo, hee-hoo', or something similar to that).
Then they snog (never a pleasant thing to hear on the radio), and the final words we're left with (surely haunting our nightmares) is:
"i think the bedroom is a very good idea"
Well, yuk (some on, it is Kenton having a sexual thrill!) and 'oh deary, deary, deary me'.
While I don't think Kenton has been especially wrong in having a fling (if it is just that), he's certainly not been thinking with his brain.
Expect a full-blown fall-out.

Fab post, Inga ! Agree with hearing the smooching on the radio being gross, and that Sabrina sounds a bit of a shameless hussey.
And yes, you're right ! it is a "chill out" zone - had it confirmed by two young people at work.
Cheers m'dear! Always nice to have a compliment!
Huge thanks for also clarifying "chill out" zone with some real live young people. I'm at that stage where I'm not quite the wrong side of 'cool', but am not sure if 'cool' is even still 'cool' these says ;-)
