Bridge Farm finds a new recruit.
Susan's feeling messed around with her hours at the shop. Pat asks her if she'll consider some part-time work at the dairy. Clarrie would show her the ropes. Susan says she'll think about it.
Pat invites Kirsty to lunch. She's making a stew for the guys planting the willow trees round the pools. Pat and Tony think the pools will be a wonderful site for their grandchildren to learn about nature. Tony's still worried about Helen's sudden urge to have a baby. Pat reminds him that it's Helen's decision. All they can do is support her
It's Neil and Susan's wedding anniversary. They enjoy a quiet night in with a takeaway and a bottle of champagne from Christopher. It's a contrast to the surprise parties that were organised for their silver wedding last year. Susan reflects on Pat's offer of work. She likes the idea of working alongside Clarrie. Neil jokes that the two of them will never get any work done. Susan decides to take the job at the dairy. It's never too late to learn new skills.
