Will the badgers lay off of David?
Brookfield is having to keep tinkering out the slurry, cross fingers that there won’t be any flash floods (which would spread their slurry into waterways) AND pray that the badgers don’t actually keep on at the lagoon to make things even worse.
Naughty badgers.
Still, might just be revenge (served very cold, and smelly, indeed).
David was also talking to Tom about what his and Tony’s take would be on the badger vaccination that Oliver is so keen on. Tom and Tony would be interested and supportive, so there’s enough folks saying ‘yes’ to call a NFU meeting in the New Year.
[David] “Why am I expending all this energy on an animal that’s doing its best to ruin our business, I don’t know”
[Tom] “It’s because you’re all heart, David”
Thank goodness for Tom’s burgers
Seems Ruth and David’s kids will be very relieved that Tom has dropped off a batch of his burgers.
After so many days of supermarket pizza, it’ll be good for them to get some variation in their diet.
Tony and Pat finally accept Sharon’s love for John?
[Pat] “I can’t forget his smile Tony … it was John … so much about him was John, I think I’ll buy him a little present …”
[Tony] “We’ve made an agreement”
[Pat] “We’ve seen him Tony, John’s boy. There’s a part of him still out there in the world”
And blow me down – Tony then said that he thinks Sharon must have indeed love John after all, since she named their son after him.
Pat actually sounds quite calm. They’re both glad they met Rich/John. And they both seem to accept that they won’t see him again until he decides.
[Pat] “We can only hope he’ll come find us”
Dairy farming isn’t an exact science
Not according to Tom.
He’s comparing notes with David. Though milk prices have cropped up again, it’s still not among David’s herd yield any more milk.
But – David’s beef herd and sheep doing okay.
[David] “There’s still something to be said for mixed farming, just like my dad used to say”
David still needs to get out more
Tom suggests to David that he come on Will’s stag night.
[Ruth] “There you are David, a curry and a good laugh what more do you want?”
But David would rather have a DVD and an early night.
Bridge Farm’s new branding approved
The new Ambridge Organics brand has met with everyone’s approval. Seems it’s modern, clean lines with strong colours.
And Ambridge Organics, the shop, is up at the moment. Though they reckon some of that is due to folks giving themselves a Christmas treat, it may also suggest that they were right to go with that as the brand (though the ‘organics’ bit will be downplayed).
So Pat and Tony reckon well done Tom and Helen.
(I still think Tom’s an arse for pushing ahead with the Tom Archer’s bran, abandoning Bridge Farm, and the rest of his family …)
Elona’s husband has moved in
Thinks Tom. A bloke has been seen with a van, moving what seems to be his stuff into No.3
So far, Elona does seem to be a good ‘un. No complaints from Tom and Brenda having her and her teenage girls as neighbours. And she saved the day when Peggy twisted her ankle.
Wonder if he husband Darrell will change all that.
