This all started this afternoon before they started getting ready for the party.
Alex' mood suddenly lifted - as soon as that happened she seemed as though she felt free to approach him and soon she was on the same sun lounger with her back to him sitting between his legs and leaning back from time to time.
I think they had opened the wine but in no way were they drunk.
She had said to Jonny - when Alex was threatening to walk - that she didnt want Alex to go - although he said he would be pleased to see the back of him.
I think she may have been duped into voting for Alex and regretted it when she realised that he may be leaving.
When he went off on his own to have a think - maybe feeling a bit bewildered and sorry for himself - she realised what the house would be like if he wasnt there.
The mood of the whole house changed due to Alex being down - after all when Sandy used to go off on his own - no-one was particularly bothered.
It's obvious she doesnt fancy Jonny at all and he must grate on her - although she tries hard not to show it.
This is how I see it - she is pleased that he has cheered up and
sees an opportunity to regain a foxy friendship [if not more].
Alex has to be careful though - she is tricky.
Alex and Kate to the end.

sorry this is so long
