The Archers, pretend glass artist, allotment weeder, climbed career ladder until I fell off, champagne socialist, mostly drunk, wish I'd stuck at archeology and not chased girls.. I am fun at parties but not worth taking home

#TheArchers SL meeting:
Ed: we’ve got a romantic SL for you Lilly
L: oh great. Someone my own age this time?
Ed: No. But with a malodorous northern accent who is a bit nerdy
L: Ooh! Is it Guy Garvey?
Ed: Almost

Could Lilly sue #TheArchers for constructive dismissal?
Forcing this ridiculous SL on her with a completely ridiculous man

Isn’t there a more suitable older man in #TheArchers for Lilly?
Brian? Or Martin Gibson?

I'm a bit confused what Adam is doing jobwise.
Isn't he working at Home Farm?
Yet he is a farmer who can work from home?

Oh. I missed one…
“We agreed to let fate take it’s chance” = Eric doesn’t like wearing condoms
“We agreed to let fate take it’s chance” = Eric doesn’t like wearing condoms
Poor Crusty. Another bad man.
“I’m here for you” = but not there with you. Too busy being away from you
“Whatever you need just say” = I can’t be arsed to think of what you might need
“Congratulations” = you’re on your own
Not sure we’ll see Eric again except to break up.

Hold on.
I’m not much good at this stuff.
But…
Crusty was in Liverpool with Eric the lover only last week?
How late can she be? A couple of hours?

Crusty &Eric look like they’re victims of Trumps war in the Middle East.
There’s a shortage of condoms - no lubricants apparently. They’re all stuck in the Strait of Hummus.

When Helen says “she finished with Dane (or Dale?)” does she actually mean that #TheArchers are done with Dale or Dwane? And we’ll never hear him again

Another contrived episode that drops my mood for the week.
1.Chris must know Lottie. He picks up the brat and goes to parents evenings.
2.Chris must have asked himself if his drinking contributed to Alice’s drinking before
3.Rex would never have gone to Alice’s no matter how drunk

The more this Brine SL goes on, the more I think he’s going to die soon.
He’s given Lil the truth. For her to wrestle with after he’s gone.
The farm is set up for an almighty inheritance row
He owes George money
He owes Miranda an explanation
It’s all pointing one way

I imagine Rex smells damp and musty….. living on that barge.
This probably means that Alice now also smells ….
Rex is right that Alice is out of his league but he has managed to demote her a few leagues .. a bit like Spurs dropping to the National league

The ones where you pretend to friends that you’re going on a date when really you’re Billy no mates at the movies or a pub.

last time George went to market and met a "character", he came back with some magic beans.. I mean turkey poults that weren't....
So these sheep are likely to be goats or pigs

Miranda is a great character.
But she sounds exactly like the Chair of a resident association that makes my Charity Chair life hell.
Nevertheless, once I shake that off, Miranda is a good one…. Although I would like to see her with an evil SL like my Resident Assoc nemesis!

Is Rex still living on his mould house boat? And driving a taxi?
And Brine takes credit for setting Alice up for that?!
And he was the man who famously called Chris “a starter marriage”!
