@TallGiraffe

Blush I hope that was a genuine enquiry Olivia!


Oh yes, quite so. Have caught up now
Am v worried for Lillian - Matt is SO onto her - she might end up alone at this point. Sad

And also when Matt was talking to Bren in the office he was saying about Dodgy Des from the dog fights "the old gang's back together"
like they were his mates or something...

She went to ask Tom for more shifts milking because her horrible awful nasty parents are making her pay for her car herself. He said no, and by the way don't tell anyone but we're selling the cows so you won't have any shifts at all soon. She threw a strop. He offered her work on the burger van. She threw a bigger strop. Then called Spencer when in the Bull and told him in the loudest voice possible about the cow sale.

Meanwhile Tom continues to believe he's the first person in history to get dumped!

And now having been asked by Tom not to breather a word about the cows she has told Spencer and possibly the rest of Ambridge she was talking so loud

So Pip is now rude and bolshy to Tom as well as her parents, ooo she's annoying! And she uttered the phrase "this is a totally unsustainable situation" the other day - who talks like that Hmm

Though because they're organic wouldn't they be less likely to get T.B.? I remember Joe talking about grass needing to have clover in it which gives immunity.

Could the Llama story be one of those government propaganda things they used to do?
Having Pat and Tony face even more disaster because their cows have TB spread by the badgers. Would that reduce public outrage at a badger cull?

Yes, they really need to formalise this whole thing about Pip's employment status. Either she is working on the farm, in which case she needs to know when and where and how many hours she is expected to do, or she is not working on the farm, in which case the precious little madam can go and live in student halls in Felpersham.

I did enjoy it when she was walking and the Sausage boy could not give her a lift :)

It is a shame he could not tell her that her job was finished as well, but it will be something to look forward to at a later date.

Well that's a thought Olivia Grin I'm not so sure R4 and badgers (if you believe that they all carry TB Grin) Can move about can't they? OOOH another problem for Pat and Tony, more emoting.

I agree about Pip BTW she's annoying but I don't know how far her yewni is from Brookfield. It'd be a difficult thing to combine it with helping on the farm anyway.

Bridge Farm cows needing a TB check - how far away from the Llamas are they

I wondered that too. I even googled the <a class="break-all" href="http://www.google.co.uk/imgres?imgurl=www.paulvallely.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/map-of-ambridge.jpg&imgrefurl=www.paulvallely.com/?p%3D3727&h=1162&w=1565&sz=236&tbnid=X2aVfW-NwA9kmM:&tbnh=91&tbnw=122&zoom=1&usg=__yDHVfPMSXAumV6UwnRFrZiliiNE=&docid=2UjaLs3VGgfVtM&sa=X&ei=wnx-Uc6tC-is0QWNxIHQDg&ved=0CEMQ9QEwAw&dur=774" rel="nofollow noindex" target="_blank">village map Blush. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem likely.

I am making no apologies for Pip, but David and Ruth do rather bring it on themselves. If she is supposed to be 'employed' on the farm then didn't they agree how many hours per week and do they not agree a shift at the beginning of the week? If David keeps suddenly dropping in a "can you help tomorrow" then that's never going to work.

Actually she reminds me of my ex-h's little sister, who at 20 insisted on having a university flat paid for by her parents, even though she actually already lived in the town with them and hardly used the flat Hmm

She's a bit of a whiner but I did feel a bit sorry for her when the awful boyfriend buggered off leaving her heartbroken.

I cant believe that any sane parent would behave like Rooooth after the way they were spoken too, unfortunately I agree with Humphrey that she will insist they finance Pips new car (with a bigger engine.).
i think the script writers have conveniently forgotten that they are supposed to be hard up after having to raise money for the new equipment thingy that we all wanted Pip pushed into ,and Rickyard is still empty.
