Summary

Sponsorship this week from UrbanSprawl.org.uk and Barwick Green by Aunty Jean plus William the parrot who was upset at not being included last week. Andrew Horn was sitting in for Roifield, providing he did not do it as well as the man himself.Lucy nailed Ruth's stroppiness - pointing out that she has just dropped over 30 years and turned into a teenager. And Jenny's old kitchen has finally found a home in the village hall. How long has that story been maturing?Opinions on Lynda swing violently depending on the time of year. Much praise for Tony for standing up to Rob. We are reminded of some back stories this week - particularly Helen's illness when born and how she weak was then leading Pat to being particularly protective of her daughter and therefore siding with Rob over the danger of driving, bearing in mind the last accident involving Mike.Roifield was given a long task list, Andrew is on the Colombian free trade and he was joined by Lucy. Andrew also revealed the secret life of a chorister.Millie Belle reported a bumper crop of activity on Facebook - particularly with Ambridge becoming Ruthless (for only two weeks!) and David referring to getting shot by being late for the restaurant booking!There were a lot of callers this week:Paul Douglas predicted that Rob's parents would reveal that he has previously only fathered girls.Michelle Lafferty is another first time caller and acknowledges that David is not jerk - but just being a farmer.Claire from Scotland via Canada who thinks Ruth needs help expressing herselfJacqueline Bertho turned the focus onto Pip who has effectively replaced Ruth everywhere except in David's bed.Miss Mid City can see no sense in Ruth's decision to go - but hopes she will not come back. After all Ruth cannot run away from herself.Nosila and Witherspoon majored on Helen's problems and Pat's siding with Rob - but there are reasons from history.FInally Vicky Cole is incredulous with Alan and there were crickets in the background
