Bridge building doesn't come easily to Brenda.
Clarrie's at the shop, telling Susan that Jazzer's mate Daz says he sold the bowl to "a dude with a posh bird on his arm". Susan doesn't think this helps!
Mike is upset that Brenda's unhappy about his engagement. Clarrie's helped him understand. Vicky will never replace Betty. Brenda tells him it's not that. Vicky's just not right for him. Mike protests that Vicky is so kind. Maybe it's going to take time to get used to.
Later, Mike and Vicky look at wedding invitations. Mike says he'll ask Neil to be a witness. Vicky says she'll pick up some holiday brochures for their honeymoon. Vicky's disappointed that Mike can only take a few days off, but he promises her something special later in the year.
Ruth and David work in the grain store. An ornithologist will come to ring the owl chicks next week.
At cricket practice, Alistair gets everyone stretching. David and Alistair are keen to chat but Adam tells them to get moving. Practices should mean something.
Brenda calls in at the shop. Susan says she's heard she and Mike are having a double wedding. Brenda puts her straight. She'd rather get married over a vat of sulphuric acid!
