This is too much for me now. I need to meditate.

Have I inadvertently killed The Archers thread?? Shock I won't post my Haiku if that is what's putting you all off.

AllMimsyWereTheBorogoves · 18/01/2015 16:43

I'd like to see the Haiku! I expect it's just Sunday afternoon torpor, told.

toldmywrath · 18/01/2015 16:54

ThanksAllMimsy \torpor is such a lovely word.

GypsyFloss · 18/01/2015 17:37

Yes please for the haiku.

Ohhh just listened to two weeks omnibuses almost back to back. What a tizz old Ambridge is in.

BOOP: love the fact the Hellin/Rob has properly risen to the surface and this 'illegitimate' child storyline is being played out. However- gaps in my listening mean I'm not sure if we know it is definitely his? Why is he insisting to her it isn't, if we all know it is? I quite like Hellin (I sympathise greatly with her struggle with ED and pregnancy and think she's just rather nice) and would love to see her get rid of Rob and his controlling bollocksy nonsense.

My prediction: Justin Elliot is dodgy, Matt was mixed up in it, it's going to come out and that's why Brookfield will fall through, Matt did a bunk before he would bring Lillian down with him- tiger and pusscat will be eventually reunited.

Thanks for the new thread Pseudo . Yes please for that haiku.

PhaedraIsMyName · 18/01/2015 18:32

Putting on flak jacket, but I don't like Matt. He is manipulative, creepy and devious.

I am stunned however that the conveyancing, title searches, property enquiry searches for Brookfield are going so swimmingly well no one ever has to mention them. Bears no resemblance to any farm sale I've dealt with. Possibly conveyancing is another string to the Archers' health fairy's bow.

simbacatlivesgain · 18/01/2015 18:40

However- gaps in my listening mean I'm not sure if we know it is definitely his?

We don't know that it is his and in the end he may turn out to be what he seems at surface level- a nice guy albeit a bit intense.

BringYourOwnSnowman · 18/01/2015 18:40

matt is manipulative and devious. not sure he's particularly creepy!

TopazRocks · 18/01/2015 19:04

What I like about Matt is his humour - some of his lines can be very witty. He IS a wide boy and he's been in prison for fraud and he had shown considerable aggression at times. So, no, not a nice man really though he has a kind side to him as well. IRL he's not somebody I'd choose to have in my life certainly but for a radio soap he's quite the asset. BRING BACK TIGER. Grin

KatieKaye · 18/01/2015 19:05

Re the conveyancing for Brookfield -the initial purchase of land was fairly recent, as Dan was a tenant farmer when the series started, and all the other purchases were after that date. The transfer to David and Ruth was more recent and I don't recall any hitches with either the searching or conveyancing, so going by that I can't see any reason for there to be any hitches.

ZeroFunDame · 18/01/2015 19:05

Grin A shower tribute!

BringYourOwnSnowman · 18/01/2015 19:08

Adam and Ian splashed out - Florida AND the Bahamas.

pc plot seems to specialise in cringe. And is it the first penis Jolene has ever seen? Are we heading for an affair with MIL storyline - cos that would be very eastenders. Nice to hear Lillian's filthy laugh though!!!

BringYourOwnSnowman · 18/01/2015 19:08

Agree Topaz!

lljkk · 18/01/2015 19:11

She's pg... isn't she?

ZeroFunDame · 18/01/2015 19:12

No. Helen. SHUT UP. !!!!

lljkk · 18/01/2015 19:13

Oh no, how wrong could I be (how boring could be her 'revelation'). Is Rob the type to blackmail?

ZeroFunDame · 18/01/2015 19:13

OMG. Rob hates Ian.

Of course he'll make sure Ian finds out.

BringYourOwnSnowman · 18/01/2015 19:14

That's a nasty cough helen has. And Rob protesteth too much!!

Rob is going to love this little bit of info!! His love of Ian will clearly keep the info close to his chest.

Harrison is getting a bit nosy isn't he - I know it's because Lillian can't talk to herself but still seems a bit odd.

No winter clothes - Panama then?

BringYourOwnSnowman · 18/01/2015 19:15

Lillian is grasping at straws....

BringYourOwnSnowman · 18/01/2015 19:15

He's dead isn't he.

ZeroFunDame · 18/01/2015 19:18

Probably BYOS.Sad

Trying to work out how stirring things between Adam and Ian would benefit Rob.

Awkward for Charlie though; when he inevitably wants to sack Rob.

KatieKaye · 18/01/2015 19:19

Better bloody not be (Tiger dead, that is!)

What is dim Helen on, telling vile Rob that? She knows damn well he's homophobic.

Anyone want to bet the reason she's feeing so awful with her cold is that she's preggers?

(although I do wonder if the reason Rob is so adamant the baby isn't his is because he's sterile)

GypsyFloss · 18/01/2015 19:21

Jolene was incredibly cringey when PC Plot reappears after his shower.

Helen should have heard the note in Robs voice and been really bloody scared that she'd disclosed the secret to him.

I'm really bloody worried that Tiger is dead now :( I was hoping that he'd needed access to cash urgently but I'm not so sure now .

Zero are you doing the Archers vs War & Peace quiz? Smile
