This is all very sudden re. Ruth shooting off to NZ.

Does the actress want a break or something?

No, but it was felt the listeners did!

Too right but, her Mum has just died, she is an only child. Who is going to sort out her Mums probate? Having just been through it, I know how long it takes. She needs to be there I expect she is an Exectutor?

It does take ages. My aunt died in June and I'm an executor, and it still hasn't been finalised yet!

Do you think Rob is actually drugging Helen in some way?

We discussed this upthread and I thought he wouldn't risk harming the baby by doing so... but now I'm not so sure. Why is Helen becoming confused and disoriented? Why is she dizzy? Rob was really keen for her to eat that meal after she went off-message and turned up at Bridge farm unannounced too.

So Ruth is having a flounce because she has no control over tack sheep and bovine semen.
Bye then. They should have just encouraged her and said it was a great idea. Would have rather soured the attention-seeking!

Shhh. Don't question it, they might change their minds. Just be grateful.

Never thought of that? It could be just good old fashioned brain washing

Does Bridge Farm still have the bull that mauled Tony?

I'm thinking it should be vexed and prodded and then put in a small enclosed paddock with Rob.

Unfortunately they sold it. I'm sure the replacement one could be prodded into doing something equally nasty to Rob though

Never quite understand why people embolden the bit of the quote they want to specifically comment on rather than quote just that bit even when they have nothing to say about the rest of the quote?

Because it's quicker.

Quicker for the poster but slower for all the readers so shows a lack of common courtesy.

Rob seems overly interested in being a protective Dad, he is such a control freak I would not put it past him, he made her drink too much and then she became pregnant......perhaps he wants her out of the picture and he can raise the two boys (because he is 100% sure the new baby will be a boy) himself.

Things are looking so grim for the Grundys. Can you imagine Joe in a care home? They might as well shoot him Couldn't he stay with Will or Ed for a bit while Eddie 'sorts something out'?
......oh no, not a Care Home for Joe, and what happens then to poor Bartleby?......

I enjoyed that too! The Hornéd One will get nowhere with Tony!

Helen on the other hand, might as well be made from bristle - she is such a doormat:
"Thanks for not being angry with me"

Urgh.
Exxxxxxacccccttttllllly.........

I wonder how Rob will feel when the baby turns out to be a girl?

Ruth really isn't coming across as a very nice person just now. All that feeling left out and attention seeking She seemed to enjoy Pip and David being upset about the sudden New Zealand trip too. Nasty bint needs to grow up.
