Pip’s begging for slaughter
(well, she wants to go to the slaughter house, Crowthers)
But all credit to her. She really does sound serious about learning “what happens at every stage”.
She really does seem to be enthusiastic about having a future at Brookfield. Which includes dismissing Colleges which are a mere 2 hours away …
Hmmm. Is Pip more scared about leaving home than serious about wanting to stay?
Eddie puts one over on Brian
Eddie seems to be on a roll at the moment.
First he pulls a whopper of a trick on Nathan at the Race Evening, and now he sells a Christmas tree to Brian, without Brian realising that they were stolen from him in the first place.
The crafty old(ish) fox!
[Brian] “A very nice tree, and quite a reasonable price. Where did he get them … probably best not to ask.”
Tee-hee! It’s not often that any can claim to have ripped off Brian Aldridge twice without him noticing.
“What I wouldn’t give for a rotary milking parlour like that!”
*sigh* Ruth does really need to get out more. I know that great farming equipment will get any farmer excited, but it’s a tad sad when you’ve really got nothing else to actually get excited about …
Later on, Ruth also managed to be completely unaware that David is actually angling for some time out at the NFU Christmas Lunch.
But no. She’s rather not drink herself,, and get them back home in time for milking.
Come on Ruth. Take some time off with your hubby.
That lecturer sounded a bit like Jude …
Pip wasn’t impressed by one of the staff at the College she was vising (the one a whole 2 hours away from home, so it never really stood a good chance anyway!).
[Pip] “He was one of blokes who try to talk street to be down with the kids … even older than dad”
[Ruth] “You expect that sometimes with marketing times”
Maybe it was just me, but I though Pip had a pit of a penchant for older types who tried to act hip ….
So it looks like Pip’s mind is made up about going to Felpersham. She’ll even re-sit her exams if she doesn’t get the grades.
But Ruth really sounds keen for Pip to go away.
Of course, all Ruth really wants is for Pip to have a chance to see life beyond Ambridge – but maybe, just maybe, Ruth is starting to think of how peaceful her empty nest could look like.
Brian’s missing the point
Maybe Ruairi did tell Brian that he loved that laser thing, but Brian could be a tad more supportive of Jennifer’s view.
It really wasn’t right of Kate to take the wee chap there and leave him by himself.
But when it comes to Kate, Brian never sees any sense.
Problems for Lucas and Kate?
When Kate was mentioning all the folks she missed back home in South Africa, Lucas didn’t even get a look in.
They really don’t sound like two happy bunnies in love.
We all need to move Christmas forward for Kate
No worries Kate. I’ll just nip down the shops to buy a ready-made Christmas dinner for ten, rather than have the time to create one from scratch, and we’ll all make merry. Just for you.
Kate’s starting to feel the ‘guilt’ (not sure if Kate ever does feel guilt, but it’s the closest ‘normal’ human emotion I can use) about crashing into Phoebe’s life, than nipping off again. So she wants to have an early Christmas to ease that guilt.
What’s more, Kate’s promised Phoebe that she can join her in South Africa for Christmas next year.
Does that woman never learn? Maybe better to check with Roy and Hayley before making promises to Phoebe?
Does chopping a windscreen washer work?
Not sure if I heard that right, but it sounded like Eddie said he was ‘chopping’ his windscreen washer.
Anyone know what that involves and does it work?
Will can count
Will is simply not amused with Eddie, after finding out Eddie had sold Brian a Christmas tress that he’d stolen from Brian in the first place
[Will] “You’ve got a nerve”
[Eddie] “There’s nothing dodgy about my Christmas trees”
[Will] “You flogged Brian Aldridge one of his own trees … and you call that legitimate!?!”
Will has managed to count the estate’s stumps, and:
[Will] “If there are any more than 26 stumps, I will tell Brian”
[Eddie] “You wouldn’t shop your old dad”
[Will] “So you admit it!”
[Eddie, furiously back peddling] “You surely wouldn’t shop your old dad for something I didn’t even do”
Will would, so Eddie better cease his clandestine Christmas tree sourcing.
Amy’s coming home
She got a job at Felpersham Hospital, so will be staying with Alan and Usha for at least a while until she gets herself sorted.
Here’s guessing she delivers both Emma and Helen’s babies.
