What’s up with Joe?
He hasn’t spoken in a while.
I’m a bit worried about him. He had his nasty cough, then hasn't been heard of much since.
Very reminiscent of Sid before he went off to New Zealand …
Anyway, probably just me making too wild a guess. Joe can’t be ill if the kids are allowed to put cushions on his head while he’s having 40 winks.
On no, not the Westbury Courier as well
Seems the Westbury Courier has also ran a big piece about Bridge Farm, E. coli, the sick kiddies etc etc etc
As Jim later says – today’s news is tomorrow’s chip papers – or just something to put your muddy shoes on.
But it’s not as simple as that in our modern days of TVs, radios and the internet. And not when there’s a kid that still might die.
Will, don’t say that out loud!
[Will] “If only she’d waited another day before going back into work …”We all think it, but not helpful to actually voice it.
Clarrie drops a clanger
Quite literally. Though it was only a bunch of pans.
[Eddie] “She’s very upset … We all got to do our best to look after her”
(maybe Eddie could start with cooking her Sunday lunch for once)
Eddie wants Clarrie to come with the kids to Lower Loxley’s Garden Festival
[Eddie] “Or you could spend the afternoon reorganising the cupboards”
Surprisingly for Clarrie, she chooses a day out over the cupboards.
Christine and Jim?
Just good friends having a day out at the Garden Festival? Or romance?
Ambridge won the cricket again
With Christopher getting a half century.
Goodbye Billy Goats Gruff
Cheery-bye then. Slightly (yet another) damp squib, but at least it made George happy.
Kenton’s crayfish annoy Will
Kenton has sourced crayfish for The Bull’s menu from somewhere local, but he won’t tell Will where.
That can only mean it’s something to do with Brian’s land, surely?
Clarrie Hara-kiri?
Clarrie had a bit of a rough time at the Garden festival. Everyone was talking about Bridge Farm, without realising that the E. coli started with her.
She now thinks she should resign. She can’t stand that it’s all her fault, and can’t see how she could continue.
Eddie reckons she shouldn’t. he thinks that if that was what Pat and Tony wanted, that they would have sacked her by now.
Tough one indeed. If I was Clarrie, I would also want to resign. But the Grundy’s are hardly flush enough to cope with one less wage coming in. Joe would have to go back down the mines …
