Joe insisted on showing Will his onions
Well, Joe is of that age. And it is nearly Flower and Produce show time.
Nic’s getting ready for a big night out
She wants Will home in good time for a special supper, after she’s had time to have a bath and relax, then they’re off out to a gig,
[Nic] “I wanted to get glammed up for my man … Mitch Riley … I’m joking, Why would I want a lead singer when I’ve got you!”
(is Mitch Riley a real person, or a fabrication of Nic’s imagination?)
Debbie doesn’t impress David
With her talk of super dairies.
David was asking her if she thought that super dairies were the way the world was going.
[Debbie] “As far as the UK is concerned, I can see for all types, to be honest”
Debbie reckons that while “traditional” dairy farmers like David will do deals and sell direct into supermarkets and the like, the super dairies will sell on commodity markets – on a global scale.
David isn’t so sure.
He reckons that where UK super dairies will have thousands of cows, American ones will have thirty thousand. Meaning the Americans will drive down the global price, so UK super dairies have to go back into selling into local and national retailers – squeezing chaps like David out.
Seems Zofia and Harry are having tearful goodbyes
Though we don’t get to hear them. It’s Jennifer telling Brian about it.
Will Harry settle back into his Odd Couple relationship with Jazzer?
Will Fallon now have a look-in?
What’s Susan’s bookclub book choice?
Neither Jennifer nor Brian seems to be impressed by it.
[Jennifer] “That wretched tome I’ve having to plough through for the book club …”
Brian remembers that Jennifer was on about a character in it called Agnes, who had to walk through the snow for Christmas – Jennifer tells him that Agnes had to sleep in a sheep shed, and was “about to come under the influence of the local landowner …"
Crickey
But neither Jennifer nor Brian tells is what the book is. What is annoying.
I’d like canapés in my lunch box
[Jennifer] “Poor Neil is getting canapé in his lunch box”
Seems Susan is going overdrive in trying to keep up with Jennifer.
Jennifer hosted the last bookclub meeting, so Susan’s determined to have as good as, if not better, hospitality.
So she’s testing her food out on Neil.
Whereas Brian reckons that Neil would be far happier with a cheese and pickle sandwich – I’d be quite happy to be such a guinea pig.
Sounds yum.
For once, it wasn’t Will's fault
Will arrives home to find a rather annoyed and upset Nic.
Seems her ex, Andrew, didn’t pick the kids up from school.
So Nic had to go and get them, grovel to their children, and then annoy her mum by having the dump the kids off with her.
Andrew texted after the fact (something had could up, he claims) but now won’t switch his phone on.to answer Nic.
[Nic] “Everything’s spoilt … I haven’t even started the supper. I was going to do it in a lovely white sauce … I was going to have a really nice afternoon, pampering myself, now I look like an old frump … it’s just typical of him”
[Will] “I’m not going to let him ruin our plans … so let’s forget about your stupid ex and let’s get ready to party”
So Will cooks a rather passable supper while Nic gets ready.
He reckons she looks fabulous.
[Will] “How did I get to be so luck?”
[Nic] “It’s not luck. It’s just you”
Nic actually apologises for her outburst earlier on (blimey – who’d ever thought it’s be Nic rather than Will saying that?).
Nic kisses Will.
[Will] “What was that for?”
[Nic] “Everything,. Being you. Love you, Will Grundy”
Must (must) mean there will be wedding bells soon.
Brookfield to fall to Home Farm?
Debbie wants to have 1,500 cows on the super diary. That means she needs Borchester Land, and Home Farm to get involved.
In fact, if Debbie can persuade David to get involved – she could get the cows up to 2,000.
[Brian] “I can’t see that happening”
Debbie agrees, but she is a canny lady. We’ll have to keep our eye on her.
