Christine and Jim are falling into bad habits
It’s nearly 10am and they’re just now clearing the breakfast things away.
Shocker!
But, Christine sounds chirpy, and is also sleeping a lot better.
And seems Jim is also benefitting from living (in friendship) with Christine.
He’s been introduced to the world of Radio Borchester.
[Jim] “Not shouting at the Today programme must be doing my blood pressure the world of good!”
The Cider Club isn’t happy
About the orchard.
They want to know who the cider will belong to.
[Mike] “I’ll put it to you straight Eddie, I ain't sweating my guts out improving that orchard if you and Joe are the only ones to reap the benefits, got it!”
Blimey! Feelings are running high.
[Eddie] “Are you saying I’m on the fiddle?”
Mike reckons the cider Eddie and Joe makes isn't just for their own drinking – so yes. He does see Eddie as being on the fiddle.
Jim tries to make them compromise. He suggests everyone gets an allocation of cider for the amount of work that they do.
But Eddie’s not happy with that. He reckons it’s the Grundy’s equipment and storage.
[Eddie] “Us Grundy’s have put money and effort into acquiring them over the years”
[Mike] “You what? Scrounging bits of old sack and barrels out of people!”
BUT the Grundys do own the cider press.
So Eddie and Mike grudgingly agree to disagree. And everyone shall get their fair share of the cider.
Nathan Booth is being not nice again
Seems Christine went into the shop, and Nathan Booth made a remark about her “gentleman caller”.
And, he smirked.
Jim tells Christine not to care. That everyone who matters understands.
[Jim] “If you’re going to associate with me, you’re going to have to grow a much thicker skin”
I’ve said it before – but, good lad Jim. Good lad.
